Welcome.

I\'m offering for your considerationa stunning pair of earrings, very fine, very old, probably Blue Gem turquoise, attributed to Frank Dishta who lived from 1902 to 1954. They are screw back earrings, all original and can be converted to pierced with laser, cold solder. The work on these is so fine, they have a delicate and lacy feel to them. The turquoise has aged well, greened with age, so you will see many wonderful colors in them.

Their length top to bottom is about 1-3/4\" (4.45 cm)and hanging length a bit less, about 1-1/2\" (3.81 cm). They are feather light, one weighing 4.1 grams.

I\'ve included a picture above from Schaaf\'s biographies2 book, which discusses Frank Dishta. The belt on page 190 uses similar turquoise and work to these earrings and the necklace on page 189 also has similar work to these, though different turquoise.

These pieces were entirely hand constructed and they are a rare pair of earrings. The work is top-notch and the design very elegant. Suitable for the best collection and museum worthy. These are pieces that will always be elegant and suitable.
