Purchased in 2003 in Scottsdale and I would love to know the artist/maker. I contacted the retail store this week and they couldn’t help me with the maker, but they identified the earrings as Zuni made. They weight 8.0 grams, and are 3/4" from top to bottom. Does anyone recognize this artist?

Welcome to Turquoise People! This style of earring is usually a shop earring and the hallmark belongs to the inlayer or shop, can you possibly provide an image of the hallmark. Also, this earring was most likely inlaid by a Navajo artist.

Welcome to the forums Nevada Trails.
Welcome to the forum. Although not marked Kabana, it looks like their quality work. Sorry, no help on the hallmark. Perhaps a former employee that went out on their own?
@NevadaTrails Welcome! Your turquoise inlay earrings are lovely. The gold really showcases that beautiful blue color. Sorry, I don’t have any info about the hallmark. I checked my usual resources but, didn’t find a match.
