Time to get a little western with your wardrobe with these Genuine Buffalo Nickel Earrings by Girl Ran Away with the Spoon! Handcrafted in Miles City Montana, these gorgeously repurposed earrings are just what you need for authentic flair in your accessories. Buffalo nickels were minted in the United States between 1913 and 1938. They feature the artwork of sculptor James Earle Fraser who grew up in Minnesota and was deeply influenced by frontier life and his experiences with Native Americans as a young child. Much of his work as an adult commemorates those experiences, which you can see in every Buffalo nickel. 

Starting in 2006, Erin Thormodsgard kicked off Girl Ran Away with the Spoon with some tools and a few pieces of jewelry. Her mission was to take old these and create something new. Today, she has an absolutely adorable store in Miles City, Montana and she also crafts beautiful pieces as small as rings and as large as welded metal sculptures. She is a true woman of her trade with an eye on unique Western styles. These Montana earrings are just a part of her stunning work, and become wearable art for anyone who appreciates the craftsmanship that comes out of Montana.
