He worked for a period of time in Phoenix Arizona as a silversmith for Fred Wilson’s TP and Vaughn’s. His work is highly collectable and adored by many!

This wonderful pair of earrings offers the best of Ralph's amazing abilities as an artist and also a vintage piece of history. Beautiful silver design on the pair, set with vivid blue turquoise stones.

The earrings measure 1 1/4" long from the top of the silver. with silver posts. Hallmarked with his rain cloud.
