I like to try different styles of jewelry in terms of shapes, embellishments and forms. I present to you 2 pieces that are experimental at a bargain price of $250 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!
Navajo Yei Pendant #1
This piece is inspired by my Corn Maiden and Changing Woman series. This is a series I am dedicating to all the medicine bundles and ceremonial paraphenalia out there in the world that are not in Navajoland. Hand-fabricated set with natural red branch coral and a piece of natural Nevada’s Royston turquoise. The contrast between the red coral and green Royston turquoise is quite striking! Chain is not included. Sterling silver.
Price $250 plus $8 shipping in the U.S.
Experimental Pin #1
I was inspired by the brooches and pins from the 1920s and 1930s where they were “overdone”. I handmade this piece with minimal stamping and set it with natural Emerald Valley turquoise. I embellished this piece with handmade silver cones. I made 7 cones and only these 3 survived. This piece required about 3 different rounds of soldering to hand-fabricate the pieces and then put all the pieces together into one pin. This is a bargin!! W=2″, H=1″. The cones are 5/8″ long. Sterling silver.
Price: $250 plus $8 shipping in the U.S.
