About American West Jewelry
Celebrated jewelry designer Carolyn Pollack found her creative home in Albuquerque. New Mexico is at the heart of Southwest Jewelry and the home of the American West. Through American West Jewelry, Carolyn's mission is to create heirloom pieces that empower women, bonding them across cultures and down through generations: grandmother to mother to daughter.
Here you’ll find a selection of fine jewelry that speaks to the spirit of the American West.
CLASSICS COLLECTION
Each piece in our Classics collection is an homage to the ancient art form of sterling silver, and the unique marriage of Native American and Spanish design that emerged centuries ago, right here in the Southwest. The use of coral, turquoise and mother of pearl has been in vogue since the first trade routes connected the Pacific coast to the desert areas that are now part of Arizona, New Mexico, Texas and Mexico. The crescent-shaped naja centerpieces of our squash blossom necklaces were introduced hundreds of years ago by the Spanish, as part of bridal ensembles and were soon adopted into fashion by Navajo silversmiths.

This was my third pair of the same style of earring. This pair has the Malachite stone. I've worn them several times, but today when I slipped them out of the plastic bag that they came it, one of the stones fell out. I would return them for a replacement if it wasn't already passed the 30 day deadline. It's just very disappointing that this would happen to an earring that sells for $79 per pair.

These earrings were purchased as a gift but I have bought other items by American West before and the price is very affordable. The earrings were larger than I guessed..beautiful!

I was excited to get these as the picture was very nice. When i got them my heart sank as they were very small. The packaging was beautiful and well presented but the earrings were smaller than i had envisioned. The picture is misleading.

Love these earrings! They are very well made; the stone and design are beautiful, the prong is strong and won’t easily bend; and they are very comfortable!! Beautiful compliment to an outfit!!

I like the size, style and beautiful lapis lazuli stones. Carolyn Pollack"s sterling silver leaf design surrounding the stone is small but noticeable. I have a collection of her jewelry and wear the earrings with two lengths of small lapis and silver beads, a lapis pendant enhancer, and a lapis ring. I have the same earrings in red coral and malachite, and have enjoyed wearing them so much that I decided to also buy the lapis.

These are exactly what I wanted. They are not too tiny, but not big and clunky, either. Sadly, I lost one, so I bought another pair. In each pair, the stone has fallen out of the setting at least once. Unfortunately, I've lost the stone in the second pair. It's been quite an adventure of hunting for earrings and stones and superglue! (I blame the masks we all need to wear - they are not conducive to earring wearing!) I do not currently have a wearable pair, and I really can't afford to buy another set. But they were pretty!

I wanted blue lapis earrings small to go with other earrings. Since American west made these earrings in red coral, turquoise and blue and I own the red and turquoise, had to have these. They finally arrived today. They were scanned in by Postman, 3 houses away from me, found today after I went to PO to fuss. Finally with me. Love theAmerican West line.I purchased the White MOP earrings, they will go well with my Holiday Red/White/blue gemstone groupings.Very well designed earrings, just the right size. American West/Carolyn Pollack is Triple A rated in my estimation.
