Hopi Tufa Cast High-Grade Mediterranean Coral

These exceptional sterling silver earrings are crafted using the traditional Hopi tufa cast technique, an ancient silversmithing method in which molten silver is poured into hand-carved tufa stone molds. This process creates the naturally textured surface and organic character seen in each piece—no two are ever exactly alike.

Each round disc features a raised cross design, formed directly through the tufa casting process, and is finished with a high-grade Mediterranean coral cabochon at the center. Prized for its rich red hue and rarity, Mediterranean coral adds warmth, depth, and collector-level quality to this timeless design.
