13" Benson Yazzie Navajo hand stamped sterling collar necklace
13" Benson Yazzie Navajo hand stamped sterling collar necklace. Nice piece with a built in loop to hand a hook style pendant.

A Native American jewelry piece referred to as "silver" or "ingot" is guaranteed to be at least 90% silver. I rarely use the word "sterling" when referring to older Native American silver or really any older silver jewelry as silver contents vary and "sterling" is 92.5% silver. No older jewelry is going to be exactly 92.5% silver, some a little over, some a little under. It wasn‘t an exact thing with handmade jewelry. I‘ve seen thousands of pieces xrf‘d to prove this. Bracelets are photographed on a 6" women‘s wrist.

Child labor laws kept the<br>young man from working as a craftsman, but after World War I he was old enough<br>to be hired as a designer for an important jewelry firm. In 1924 he contracted<br>tuberculosis, and the firm sent him to a sanatorium in Santa Fe, New Mexico.<br>Patania was seduced by the active art colony and healthy climate, and chose to<br>remain in the Southwest even after his health improved. His work reflects both<br>his European training and his exposure to Pueblo and Navajo jewelry.<br><br>The legacy left by Frank Patania, Sr. came from the integration of two<br>distinctly different traditions-one European, and the other Native American. On<br>the one hand, Frank Sr. drew from a long history of Italian creative spirit,<br>combining technical expertise and artistic imagination. He instilled in his<br>family the Italian commitment to fine craftsmanship, as well as the Italian<br>custom of family corporate bonding.<br><br>This uniquely Italian tradition can be traced back as far as the Renaissance,<br>and provides a structure in which each member of an artisan family has a job to<br>perform that contributes to the family enterprise. This familial check and<br>balance system has been a powerful asset to the Patania family's continued<br>standard of excellence through the years. But Frank Sr.'s style was drastically<br>transformed when he was introduced to the work of southwest Native American<br>jewelers in the 1920s.<br><br>His inspiration was multi-faceted; he began to work in a new medium-silver and<br>turquoise-as well as in increased scale, and using new techniques. The<br>successful marriage of these two disparate traditions has become the foundation<br>upon which each generation has maintained the tradition of excellence in<br>craftsmanship and design that has come to be known as the "Patania Thunderbird"<br>style.
