Hi
In my research of Frederico Jimenez I see southwestern pieces. I have what I believe to be rhinestone earrings with his mark on the screw back. Has he designed jewelry of just rhinestones? Any help would be appreciated. Thank You

Frederico is one cool dude!
A talented Artisan who started designing his own line around 1971-72. He loves turquoise primary from Arizona and my state Nevada but likes to use spiny oyster shell, garnets and opals.
Without seeing your makersmark and you state your piece is just rhinestones I would say no to that, that's not his style.
Here's his correct MM from an actual piece and worthpoint...
if you get time to show us your piece in question, be happy to view it. Silver

Well I think we can rule out Frederico as he was a child when screwbacks were used. That's not his makermark either. The word sterling appears twice on your earring also. I'll run it thru ™️ tomorrow as I'm really having a brain issue today with thinking, 😆
