I like to try different styles of jewelry in terms of shapes, embellishments and forms. I present to you a piece that is experimental at a bargain price of $200 each plus $8 shipping.
I am a known artist both for weaving and jewelry-making in the Native art world. Keep in mind that the “first” of a series or a new form will always be worth more in the long term if buyers want to re-sell my pieces in galleries or even donating these pieces to a museum. Please contact me if you have any questions or comments. Enjoy!
Experimental Pin #1
I was inspired by the brooches and pins from the 1920s and 1930s. I handmade this piece with minimal stamping and set it with natural Emerald Valley turquoise. W=2″, H=1″. The cones are 5/8″ long. Sterling silver.
I’m sure you wonder “Why should I buy weavings and jewelry made by Morris?”. As an artist, I create well designed pieces instilled with vintage quality and styling. I also have the reputation for being an award winning weaver and I’ve lead the contemporary, new Navajo weaving movement for the last few years. My weavings are unique and one-of-a-kind, and will someday fetch high prices at Sotheby’s auctions. In contrast to my weavings, my jewelry is becoming more sought after. The exposure of my jewelry is relatively new in contrast to my weavings. Collectors of my weavings are also collectors of my jewelry.
I am also a small business trying to stay afloat in these tough times. I look forward hearing from you and hope you consider purchasing some of my work for your collection. Thank you!
This piece is made with varying size of handmade beads with variations of handstamped Dragonfly crosses.
Recently, I’ve been working on variations of the Dragonfly Cross. It’s been a recurring design in my pieces of traditional jewelry. Just as this necklace has several interpretations of the design, there are many ways to view the dragonfly cross and its development. Allison Bird’s book, Heart of the Dragonfly: Historical Development of the Cross Necklaces of the Pueblo and Navajo Peoples examines both the prehistoric southwest symbol of the dragonfly and then the influence of the Catholic church. I refer people to read this book so they can make up their own minds about the origin of this cross what they believe the cross to mean. Please contact me if you’re interested in purchasing this piece.
