Navajo silversmith Albert Platero was born on the Navajo reservation in To‘hajiilee, New Mexico, thirty miles west Of Albuquerque, New Mexico. He has been creating outstanding classic silver work since the rise of its popularity in the 1970‘s.
"Platero" means "silversmith" in Spanish, so it perhaps makes sense that the Platero family has so many talented silver smiths in it. Albert is the uncle of Vincent Platero, another outstanding silversmith.
