Vintage Turquoise Leaf & Cluster Pin – A Gentle Traveler

This vintage Native-made turquoise pin carries the soft, poetic charm of an older era. Its design blends two worlds beautifully: delicate hand-carved silver leaves at the top and a graceful cluster of turquoise petals arranged in a flowing, organic shape below. Each stone is slightly different—shades of soft green to deeper blue—telling you immediately that it was crafted long before modern uniformity.

Its journey to my store was a quiet one. Discovered tucked into a small box among a lifetime of keepsakes, it traveled from a private estate in the Southwest, wrapped carefully as if still cherished by the hands that once pinned it to a coat or hat. The silver has mellowed into a gentle patina, and the turquoise has aged just enough to show its authenticity.

Now it’s ready for someone new—a collector who appreciates understated beauty, handmade artistry, and pieces that feel like they’ve lived a good life before arriving here.
