No issues, weight and measurements in pics. Solid sterling. Diné silversmith Ike Wilson worked for many years for the Kelsey Trading Company at Zuni. He did silverwork for many of the Zuni lapidary artists including Ida Vacit Poblano. He often collaborated with his wife, Katherine Wilson. Navajo Nation artist Ike Wilson (1900-1942) would sign his creations with his bow and arrow hallmark. There has been some confusion in the past about the hallmark of Ike Wilson (1901-1942). It seems that sometimes his work was attributed to Austin Wilson. Both men were born in the same year and in a similar area of the reservation and both men worked at times for trader C. G. Wallace and the Kelsey Trading Company. Ike Wilsons work is signed with a bow and arrow. After his death in 1942, his wife Katherine Wilson (1907-1985) continued to use his hallmark. The bow and arrow hallmark was initially attributed to Ikes contemporary, Austin Wilson, but the corrected attribution was published in Messier, 2014.

Weight and measurements in pics. No issues. For over a quarter of a century, Navajo silver and goldsmith Jimmie King, Jr. excited the imagination of jewelry lovers. His unique heavy metal work style and delicate inlay earned him a reputation as a master jeweler. His work is a combination of strength and delicacy. The most common reaction when people first pick up a piece of his work is to comment on the weight of the jewelry. It feels substantial. It is inlaid with precision and color awareness, marking it as King‘s alone. King was particular about his work, refusing to hurry a piece and willing to melt it down if unsatisfied with the result. Every piece is hand-built and finished. He lived and worked just off the northern edge of the Navajo reservation near Farmington, New Mexico. His interests included reading, learning new things, and listening to opera as he created his jewelry. King created the inlay cube, the solid link bracelet with an inlaid clasp, and the "Sky High" bracelet. He has won top awards at the Gallup Intertribal Ceremonial and featured in several books and magazines about Native American art. His jewelry is signed in cursive "JR" for his name‘s first and last initials. Six dots in a semi-circle above the letters stand for the six sacred directions: North, East, South, West, the Sky, and the Earth. Years ago, in a ceremony, a medicine man told him that if he put these dots on his jewelry, everything would go well for Jimmie - it appears he was right.

Norbert Peshlakai was born on May 6, 1953, into the Black Sheep clan of the Dine people. Growing up in Crystal, New Mexico, with nine brothers and sisters, his mother is an accomplished weaver and all of his sisters and one brother followed in her footsteps. Norbert began discovering his artistic abilities as a painter in high school, starting with landscapes and abstract portraiture. He enrolled in painting classes at the University of Kansas intending to pursue a career in art. On a whim he decided to take a single jewelry making class, but after making mistakes on his first few class assignments he began to think, “making jewelry must not be my thing. He started skipping classes, until one day he ran into his teacher on campus. His teacher told him he was failing due to his absences and in order to pass he needed to present his sketchbook, identify 65 necessary tools, and make six pieces of jewelry. Norbert made more than six pieces of jewelry, and passed the examination with ease. As the teacher was photographing all of his students end of semester work in class, he motioned for Peshlakai to come over and take a look into the camera. When Norbert saw his jewelry through the lens of the camera something struck him, he reminisced, “I saw my work for the first time. Norbert continued through college attempting both painting and jewelry, but it was not long before jewelry took over as his passion. The artist sees his jewelry as a combination of painting and sculpture, and credits the sculptural work of John Boomers abstract wooden forms as an inspiration for him throughout his career. Norbert makes his own unique stamps from concrete nails to create imaginative, energetic patterns on his spirited shapes and has developed his own style of textures and overlays he is now known for. In the late 1970s he began making intricately ornamented silver pots, something he was introduced to in college and continues to experiment with today. His work is identified with a hallmark he created in the very beginning of his career consisting of a circle, dot, and v stamp forming the shape of an eye, symbolizing ‘vision. Norbert continues to make jewelry and silver pots from his home in Gallup, New Mexico, breathing life into his creative, one-of-a-kind pieces.

Alvin Yellowhorse Navajo sterling sugilite, turquoise cobblestone turtle pendant. No issues, weight and measurements in pics. Just a few miles west of Gallup, NM., nestled among the canyons & hills of the small town of Lupton, AZ., lies the quaint, cozy workshop of the young Navajo artist, Alvin Yellowhorse. Alvin learned the silversmithing trade at an early age from his father, Frank Yellowhorse, and later mastered the techniques of cutting the small turquoise & other colorful stones into precise little pieces in which he assembles into intricate designs inspired by his Anasazi ancestors. This technique is called “Channel Inlay. A style of inlay where all the stones are cut & assembled together first & then ground flush before being highly polished. Alvin is credited for originating another style of inlay called “Corn Row Wave Inlay in which the stones are individually cut & rounded over before setting them into a silver or gold bracelet, pendant, ring, or link bracelet. Corn Row Wave Inlay is much more time consuming as he has to completely finish each stone one at a time before placing them into the gold or silver setting. Alvin creates each piece one at a time . There are no mass production techniques or assembly lines. His designs, although very contemporary, are enriched by the Zuni, Hopi, & Anasazi influences along with his own Navajo heritage. Alvin also receives inspiration from the ancient petroglyphs found along the canyon walls near his workshop. Alvin is forever amazing the jewelry & art galleries with new designs & techniques. Aside from being featured in several high-end galleries, Alvin was recognized by the Smithsonian Magazine in their August 1999 issue, along with Art Book Arizona Magazine doing a profile on his life. Each year Alvin enters his jewelry into the Santa Fe Indian Market competition & has won several Blue Ribbons. All precious metals are tested and guaranteed,

Kenneth Begay Navajo White Hogan Modernist Sterling salt spoons/ironwood bowl. Selling the three Kenneth Begay salt spoons and Ironwood salt bowl shown. No issues. Weight and measurements in pics. Kenneth Begay (1913-1977) was called the “Father of Contemporary Navajo jewelry for his clean, bold, modern designs. Begay began as a blacksmith, took his first course in silversmithing from Fred Peshlakai at the Fort Wingate Vocational School for the Native Americans in Fort Wingate, New Mexico in 1938. Fred Peshlakai had been taught by his father, Slender Maker of Silver, who was trained by Atsidi Chon, one of the earliest Navajo silversmiths. Begay in turn taught traditional techniques of silversmithing to his own students from 1968-1973 at Navajo Community College in Many Farms, Arizona. In 1946, Begay started working with John Bonnell at the White Hogan shop in Flagstaff, Arizona, beginning an 18 year relationship. In collaboration with Bonnell, Begay moved Indian jewelry beyond personal adornment and into the arena of pure metalsmithing making, amongst other things, flatware sets, plates, boxes, and vessels of various kinds. Although highly unusual at this time among silversmiths, 1951-1952, he also began signing his jewelry using KB. When working for the White Hogan he additionally stamped his pieces with a small hogan. A master metalsmith, Kenneth Begay was very creative and strongly influenced by his traditional background. In his jewelry this translated to a balance between silver, stone and bold but unpretentious designs. He created clean, elegant designs based on streamlined shapes that were repeated to form balanced and harmonious patterns, a style that has been compared to Navajo weaving. Although he used and taught the old techniques, Begay explained near the end of his life, “I like to create something new and still use the old Navajo design style.

Weight and measurements in pics. Beginning in 1931, The United Indian Trader’s Association (UITA), a volunteer organization of leading Southwestern Indian traders, created and enforced a strict set of quality standards for the making and selling of Navajo and Pueblo jewelry in the trading posts of its various members. UITA’s distinctive hallmark of its initials UITA with an arrowhead in the middle followed by the numeric designation of the particular trading company it was made at or for was a guarantee of the highest quality Native jewelry; completely handmade using solely traditional methods of craftsmanship and use of only the finest, traditional materials. Since the UITA traders were the most important “Who’s-who” of their day they were well-equipped to set and enforce such high standards and as a result, the finest jewelry pieces made under UITA’s auspices are some of the very finest Navajo and Pueblo pieces of the 20th Century. "The United Indian Traders Association (UITA) was established on September 13, 1931 for the expressed purpose of authentication of Indian crafts. At the time, the UITA was an important player both in Indian cultural life and in advocating for the sale of authentic Indian arts and crafts." “UITA 6” was the numeric designation assigned to the historic and extremely remote Borrego Pass Trading Post, set in the high pinon-juniper studded hills about 50 miles south of Chaco Canyon in Northwestern New Mexico. The post first opened in 1927 and was named after the nearby Borrego Pass, an ancient water gap across the Continental Divide where Navajos used to drive their sheep. Borrego Pass Trading Post was operated by several highly influential prominent Indian traders over the next fifty-plus years, including Ben and Anna Harvey, Bill and Jean Cousins and Don and Fern Smouse. The Navajo know Borrego Pass in the Navajo language as “Tiish Bito” (Snake Spring) or “Dibe Yazhi Habitiin” meaning "Upward Path of the Lamb." Don Smouse was the chief Judge for silversmithing for the Navajo Nation for a time and dealt with the highest quality turquoise from around the world. The Trading Post was Borrego Pass Trading Post along the continental divide just south and west of Crownpoint, New Mexico. The Smouse's were old time traders and at one point were the oldest living traders in the USA and were on the national news during the 90's for still trading the old way. Don helped train the top artists in the trade and sold there jewelry from the trading Post. They had buyers come from the Middle East, Europe and Asia for the top quality product being produced. The stamp is the Smouse traders stamp.

Native American jewelry artisan Kirk Smith, or Kiyaa Alani Shush Dine (his Dine tribe name, meaning “towering house bear people clan”), created a long-lasting legacy in a tragically short life. His work is highly regarded for its quality craftsmanship and his use of stones of only the highest quality and richest coloring. Kirk’s pieces, primarily his concho belts for which he was best known, have long been coveted and collectible, with their value only increasing as a result of his unexpected, early death. His story is an interesting one. HIS LIFE: Kirk Smith first began working with silver at around age 7 in his grandfather’s hidden workshop, that according to Smith’s interview with Perry Null Trading, “you would not see it unless you knew it was there”. His grandfather also made jewelry and Kirk used to aid him by first learning to run the bellow to heat the charcoal that would allow his grandfather to work with the silver at high temperatures, and then eventually began to work with beads and bracelets and necklaces himself. He later used these primitive skills to craft jewelry for his uncle, who would exchange clothes and shoes for his pieces. In 1972, Kirk struck out on his own, primarily working in silver cast work, until the price of silver went up in 1974 and he went to work doing different things like working in the mine or a refinery in Galveston. He returned to jewelry making in the early 1980s when his mother got sick and he desired to be nearer to her. That’s when his craft took a turn. HIS MENTORS: Of course, his grandfather was his earliest influence, and perhaps the most profound on Kirk as a person, but when it comes to his craftsmanship, the game-changer for him was his brother-in-law. Kirk’s sister was married to an artisan named Harry Morgan, a well-known name in the world of Native American jewelry. Harry was known for his intricate stamp work and the way he would style his silver to give it an antique look, believing that overly polished silver hid the detailing and the beauty of a piece. It was Harry who really taught Kirk about design and style in terms of his craft.     HIS CRAFT: Kirk is probably best known for his concho belts, like the one we found in Audrey’s closet, that we thought was too beautiful not to share with y’all after being tucked away for too long. He was known for his unrelenting insistence on working his silver by hand, resulting in beautiful pieces of heavy silver and high-grade stones. In addition to concho belts, Kirk crafted gorgeous statement cuff bracelets with turquoise and red coral and some of the most striking blue lapis you’ve ever seen, as well as some rings, pendants, earrings, and even a few squash blossoms. As we mentioned, his work is highly collectible, not only because of its stunning beauty, but because sadly, there won’t be any more made; Kirk was tragically killed in 2012.   HIS DEATH: On September 17, 2012, Kirk was in an altercation in a parking lot with a young man whose truck had struck Kirk’s vehicle as the man was attempting to back into a parking spot. When the driver, who was intoxicated, tried to flee the scene, Kirk jumped onto the hood of the man’s truck. When he was eventually unable to maintain his grip, Kirk was flung from the moving vehicle and suffered injuries which resulted in his death in an Albuquerque hospital a little while later. The driver did succeed in fleeing the scene, but eventually collided with another truck and a barrier on Interstate 25 and was apprehended after a violent struggle with police; he was found to have had a blood alcohol concentration of 0.16, twice the legal limit. Incredibly, the driver, who was 16 at the time, was only sentenced to 90 days in a treatment center and two years probation. As you might imagine, Kirk’s surviving family does not feel that justice was done in the wake of his death, but they are carrying on his legacy in a positive way despite the circumstances.   Marked or unmarked as shown in pics, weight and other measurements in pics.

sz7.5 Leo Yazzie Black Jade and coral channel inlay sterling ring. Overall good condition with minor wear.LEO YAZZIE Leo Yazzie has been designing and creating fine jewelry for more than 30 years. Born and raised at Black Mesa on the Navajo Reservation in northeastern Arizona, the influence of the land and his culture is a part of each piece of his contemporary and sophisticated jewelry.Leo uses both gold and silver to create jewelry with a unique combination of traditional and contemporary designs. “The inspiration for many of my designs came from watching my grandmother, mother and other women in the family weaving rugs. They told me their designs came from Spider. Now, I make designs inspired by the patterns they wove.”Leo’s patterns vary, from a delicate cutout border with intricate detail to bold geometrics. It might be a gold panel with a geometric motif overlaid on a silver pendant; a cut-out stepped pattern encircling a stone; or a lightning shaped band on a ring. Whatever the pattern, the effect is sophisticated and elegant.The classic use of turquoise and coral is a favorite combination of Leo’s. The coral may range from pale pink to a very deep red. Leo uses turquoise of the highest quality, sometimes rare pieces from famous mines that have been closed for years. “I love working with quality stones,” says Leo. To guarantee he’d always have the best materials to work with, Leo has collected high quality stones from gem shows and traders over the years.In addition to turquoise and coral, Leo uses other semi-precious stones from around the world like sugilite, lapis, gaspeite, white opals and more. Sugilite has gained in popularity since its introduction in the 1980s. Found in the Kalahari Desert of South Africa, this stone with its deep rich purple to soft lavender color works beautifully with turquoise, or on its own. Leo enjoys pairing it with the fire in white opals.Leo’s settings are all handmade, often built up layer-by-layer. Designs are sawed out and appliquéd. Rich multi-colored side inlay will often be added to highlight a larger stone or add accent colors to the design. He uses channel inlay on some pieces, with the stones precisely cut flush with each other, so that they almost appear to be one stone. Some pieces will have a sculptural inlay, where each stone is cut and shaped, then fitted together.Leo’s avant-garde work is fitting for today’s contemporary fashions. His attention to detail and craftsmanship is evident in each piece and reflects his willingness to take the time to let a design emerge.“I enjoy what I do and I like to take my time with each piece,” says Leo. He usually works on several pieces at a time, working with one and then setting it aside to work on another, or taking one of his long walks. “I usually work for three hours each morning and then leave the pieces alone,” says Leo. His long walks are important; they reconnect him with the land and life surrounding him.The care and time that Leo takes fabricating each of his pieces has resulted in his winning enough awards and ribbons to fill two large boxes. Today, Leo has stopped entering contests. “I wanted to make room for the younger artists,” says Leo. He may have stopped competing, but he has not stopped creating. This quiet man and gifted artist continues to innovate and dazzle us with his eye for color and attention to detail. Most rings are shown on a a ring sizer in the pictures and the size is typically given at the beginning of the title and description. Women's Size 7 Ring.

There has been some confusion in the past about the hallmark of Ike Wilson (1901-1942). It seems that sometimes his work was attributed to Austin Wilson.

Ike Wilson’s work is signed with a bow and arrow. After his death in 1942, his wife Katherine Wilson (1907-1985) continued to use his hallmark.

The members were a veritable who’s who of the leading Indian traders of their dayand all pieces certified by UITA and stamped with their unique arrowhead hallmark had to pass a rigorous set of quality inspections regarding the materials and techniques used. Each member of UITA was assigned a specific numeric code which all pieces sold by them had to be stamped with.One of the most prestigious Indian trading companies of the time was Julius Gans’ Southwest Trading Company of Santa Fe, New Mexico. Julius Gans was an enterprising and dynamic trader who employed at one time or another a veritable All-star team of some of the finest Native American silversmiths in the business; the Roanhorse brothers, Ambrose and Sam, Mark Chee and the fine Cochiti Pueblo silversmith David Taliman among others. The numeric code assigned by UITA to Southwest Arts and crafts was “UITA21” which is the stamp this bracelet is marked with.This bracelet could very easily have been made by any one of Southwest Arts and Crafts’ ace silversmiths; it most resembles in our minds the work of Ambrose Roanhorse but it could easily have been made by his brother Sam or even possibly by Mark Chee or David Taliman or a number of others. The design is a beautiful repeating pattern of nine perfectly-executed diamond-shaped Navajo textile-style designs running across the center of the bracelet’s shank.“The United Indian Traders Association (UITA) was established on September 13, 1931 for the expressed purpose of authentication of Indian crafts. At the time, the UITA as an important player both in Indian cultural life and in advocating for the sale of authentic Indian arts and crafts.UITA was incorporated as a non-profit in New Mexico, with the support of a number of traders and San Francisco attorney Charles Elkus. Bert Staples (Coolidge, NM) was UITA's first President, R. C. Master (Zuni, NM) was Vice President, C. N. Cotton (Gallup, NM) served as Treasurer and Tobe Turpen (Gallup, NM) was Secretary. Directors included L. L. Sabin, C. G. Wallace, J. M. Drolet, Ramon Hubbell, Lloyd Ambrose, Bruce Barnard and Mike Kirk.

Throughout his art classes in school, he always wanted to create the perfect shape. His first career, however, took him into the Forest Industry. He soon realized that he wanted to follow the yearnings of his heart and create beautiful jewelry.He borrowed jewelry tools from his father-in-law and set to work, learning the demanding craft of silversmithing. Richard was immediately drawn to the intricate inlay work, for which he is known for. As he perfected his craft, Richard explored different techniques of inlaying. He was always searching for the best way, the most beautiful setting, the perfect harmony of material and craft.He also developed an eye for choosing the best stones for his inlay. Turquoise and coral are his favorite, but Richard used a wide variety of stones and shells, including malachite, spiny oyster, and pacific coral. Not limited to the usual in anything he did, he also inlaid opals, sugilite, lapis and other exotic stones into his award-winning pieces.The importance of harmony in his work was echoed in his silverwork, especially his pendants. In these pieces, he incorporated important symbols from his culture. Corn was a significant gift to the People by the Creator--it represents life to the Navajo. The Yei-Be-Che is the personal link between the Navajo gods and mortal man. The Bear, one of the four animals given to the first people, embodies power and wisdom. It was provided for protection and guidance, and to ward off evil. Richard also used the Steppe Design found in the wedding baskets and recreates special times, such as the social dances he goes to. Encircling it all is his extraordinary inlay, adding color and life. The beautiful things Richard looked for exist in his creations.Richard passed away in 2013.Marked or unmarked as shown in pics, weight and other measurements in pics.

Vintage Boyd Tsosie Navajo Tufa Cast Sterling Peyote Vogel Halskette und Anhänger mit Amethyst und Sugilith. Anhänger 3,75" hoch x 1 5/8" breit, Halskette 21,5" lang. Ich glaube, die Halskette wurde ebenfalls von Boyd Tsosie hergestellt. 37,8 Gramm Gesamtgewicht. Sowohl die Halskette als auch der Anhänger wurden auf Sterling getestet, beide von erstaunlicher Qualität. Boyd Tsosie ist ein Juwelier, der sich vom reichen Erbe seiner Navajo-Traditionen inspirieren lässt. Er wurde 1954 geboren und stellt seit seinem sechzehnten Lebensjahr Schmuck her. Kenneth Begaye, ein Lehrer am Navajo Community College im Navajo-Reservat, inspirierte Boyd schon in jungen Jahren. Boyd würdigt Kenneth dafür, dass er ihm sein Handwerk beigebracht hat. Im Laufe der Jahre hat Boyd einen zeitgenössischen Arbeitsstil entwickelt, der hauptsächlich aus 14-karätigem Gold in Kombination mit Türkis, Koralle, Lapislazuli und Sugilit besteht. Boyd hat das Gefühl, dass er die „Tradition von morgen“ im Navajo-Schmuck kreiert, indem er von seinen Ältesten die Rechte und Gebete erhält, seine besonderen Stücke herzustellen. Er wird in „Navajo Indian Jewelry and Enduring Traditions“ von Jerry und Lois Jacka und „North American Indian Jewelry and Adornment“ von Lois Dubin vorgestellt. Boyds Schmuck ist derzeit in New Mexico auf der Jewels of the Southwest Exhibit 2002 ausgestellt.

Dan Jackson Navajo-Teppich-Armband aus Tuffsteinguss mit Ajax-Türkis. Passt bis zu einem Handgelenk von 6 7/8 Zoll, einschließlich der 1-Zoll-Lücke. 117,2 Gramm. Dan Jackson (1944–2022) war ein preisgekrönter Navajo-Silberschmied, der vor allem für seine sorgfältigen „Teppichmuster“-Radierungen in Silber und Gold bekannt ist. Dan bleibt der Kultur und den Traditionen der Navajo-Lebensweise treu und hält Pferde und Schafe, kreiert aber auch Silber- und Goldschmuck, der typischerweise Teppichmuster in brillant ausgeführten Overlay-Designs enthält. Mit einer Vielzahl von Oberflächen – strukturiert, poliert, matt, abgedunkelt – und sorgfältiger Verarbeitung erhalten diese aufwendigen Designs einen sehr modernen, urbanen Reiz. Dan sagt: „Ich habe Silberarbeiten von meinem Vater gelernt, der bis zu seinem 95. Lebensjahr mit Silber gearbeitet hat. Die Teppichdesigns auf meinem (Schmuck) … stammen aus den Webarbeiten meiner Mutter … Ich führe die schweren Silberarbeiten meines Vaters fort.“ Sein Markenzeichen auf seinem Schmuck ist das Hogan, das traditionelle Zuhause der Navajo – „ein Geschenk des First Man an die Dine“. Diese runde Struktur aus Erde und Holz verkörpert das Grundgerüst des Navajo-Lebens: die kreisförmige Natur des Lebens. Alle Dinge sind lebendig und bestehen aus zwei Teilen – es ist die Verbindung dieser beiden Teile, die das Ganze ergibt und so Gleichgewicht und Harmonie schafft.“ Dan bringt diese Vorstellung von Ausgewogenheit und Tradition in das sorgfältige Silber seines Schmucks ein. Dan lernte das Silberschmieden von seinem Vater John Nez Begay, der über 80 Jahre lang Schmuck herstellte und 106 Jahre alt wurde. Seine Mutter, Bernice Charlie, war Weberin und ist die Quelle von Dans Inspirationen. Er erzählt, dass seine Mutter ihn in einem Traum besuchte und ihn dazu anregte, seinen mittlerweile berühmten dreifach überlagerten Teppichdesign-Schmuck zu kreieren. Dan hat eine formale Ausbildung im Ingenieurwesen. Er arbeitete 20 Jahre lang für das Bureau of Indian Affairs. Nach seiner Verletzung im Jahr 1985 brauchte Dan eine andere Möglichkeit, seine Familie (vier Töchter) zu ernähren. Da er ein versierter Silberschmied war, war es für ihn nur sinnvoll, seine Zeit der Herstellung von Schmuck zu widmen. Dan sammelt regelmäßig Auszeichnungen und Auszeichnungen auf jurierten Kunstmessen wie dem Santa Fe Indian Market. Er hat zahlreiche Auszeichnungen und Auszeichnungen bei der Gallup Inter-Tribal Ceremonial, der Window Rock, Arizona Tribal Fair, der New Mexico and Arizona State Fair und der Shiprock, NM Fair gewonnen.

Richard Tsosie Navajo Cobblestone Inlay Tufa Gussgürtelschnalle. 2 5/8" x 2", nimmt einen Gürtel von bis zu 1,25" auf. Künstler › Richard Tsosie Richard ist vielleicht am besten für seine markanten strukturierten Silberdesigns bekannt. Seine charakteristische Granulationstechnik wurde zufällig entdeckt, als er bemerkte, dass Silberspäne auf einem Ring verschmolzen, den er gerade lötete. Er nennt den Prozess, der diese körnige Oberflächenstruktur erzeugt, „Retikulation“ und hat die Technik im Laufe seiner Karriere perfektioniert. Richard wurde 1956 geboren und ist seit Mitte der 1970er Jahre als Juwelier tätig. Er lernte die Schmuckherstellung von seinem Bruder Boyd und von Kenneth Begay am Navajo Community College in Arizona. Er entwickelte sich schnell von den einfachen Aufgaben des Schneidens und Polierens von Steinen zum komplexeren Prozess des Intarsiens. Richards zeitgenössische Silber- und Haltearbeiten zeichnen sich durch die Verwendung von Fertigung, Überlagerung und Körnung aus. Er ist auch für seine farbenfrohen Intarsienarbeiten mit einer Vielzahl von Natursteinen sowie für sein hohes Maß an Kontrolle und Liebe zum Detail bekannt. Seine Entwürfe sind von Bildern der Natur inspiriert, insbesondere vom Wide Ruins-Gebiet des Reservats, in dem er einen großen Teil seiner Jugend verbrachte. Richard sagt über seine Arbeit: „Ich bin inspiriert von den Farben der Berge bei Sonnenuntergang, den Schatten- und Lichtmustern, die im Morgengrauen auftauchen, und den punktförmigen Sternenlichtern vor dem schwarzen Nachthimmel.“ Seine Stücke enthalten typischerweise das Symbol für Beleuchtung und ein Pfeilmuster. Der Blitz steht für natürliche Ursachen, während die Pfeilspitze vom Menschen geschaffene Elemente symbolisiert. Laut Richard repräsentiert das Design die Höhen und Tiefen des Lebens. „An manchen Dingen können wir nichts ändern und Sie sollten versuchen, das Leben in vollen Zügen zu genießen.“ Alle Edelmetalle werden geprüft und garantiert.

1960er Jahre Tomasita Montoya (1899-1978) Dominguita Sisneros Naranjo (geb. 1942)San Juan Pottery Native American Bowl Mutter/Tochter. 7" breit x 4" hoch, ohne Risse, Chips, Restaurierungen oder nennenswerte Gebrauchsspuren. Tomasita Montoya war einer der ursprünglichen sieben Töpfer aus San Juan, die die Kunstform in den 1930er Jahren wiederbelebten. Ihre Töchter Rosita de Herrera und Dominguita Herrera lernten bei ihr das Töpfern. Das Pueblo hatte eine wunderbare Geschichte der Töpferei, aber um 1890 gab es keine Töpfer mehr. 1930 organisierte Regina Cata in San Juan Pueblo eine Töpferstudiengruppe mit der Absicht, die Töpferproduktion wiederzubeleben. Die Gruppe untersuchte alte Tonscherben von Waren, die in früheren Zeiten in San Juan hergestellt wurden, und wählte Potsuwi'i-Ritzkeramik (1450-1500) als Grundlage für einen zeitgenössischen Keramiktyp. In den späten 1930er Jahren führte die weitere Entwicklung zu tief geschnitzten polychromen Waren und Waren mit Einschnitten, die beide noch heute hergestellt werden. Tomasita war vor allem für ihre roten Gefäße, Schalen und Vasen mit Einschnitten bekannt. Die Verzierung dieser Gefäße bestand hauptsächlich aus geometrischen Schraffuren mit feinen Linien. Gelegentlich verwendete sie Glimmerton, um den geometrischen Elementen etwas Textur und Glanz zu verleihen. Tomasita fertigte auch tief geschnitzte polychrome Stücke an, die Motive von Wolken, Kiva-Stufen und Pflanzen enthielten. tw229
