Squash Blossom Post Earrings

Could anyone help date and identify the artist on these red coral & turquoise earrings marked Sterling X please? The bezel setting is not a saw tooth but rather softer. I am guessing around the 70s? Thank you in advance for looking.

Any help would be much appreciated. Can I call these earrings Native American or are they considered Southwestern? I would like to know your thoughts on whether the stones are genuine.

Thank you in advance for looking.

They are nice. I would call these Navajo handmade. It is Mediterranean Coral and the turquoise has a Persian look (difficult to tell from the picture). If we had these they would probably be somewhere around $60. Hope that helps.
