Tom Burnsides (1917-1957) was a renowned Diné (Navajo) silversmith celebrated for his traditional sandcasting and hand-wrought stamp work, gaining prominence after being featured in John Adair's 1944 book, The Navajo and Pueblo Silversmiths, with his iconic pieces displayed in museums and collections worldwide. Known for intricate, meaningful designs reflecting Navajo culture, Burnsides tragically passed in a 1957 auto accident, leaving a significant legacy in Native American art.

Tom Burnside was mentioned in the early book by John Adair. He was from Pine Springs Az. and worked out of his home. In 1938 anthropologist John Adair travelled to the Navajo reservation in Pine Springs, Arizona, with a 16mm hand-wind motion picture camera. Adair met and filmed Tom Burnside and his family, all Navajo handcrafters, creating a visual record of Navajo life in the 1930s. Tom was known for his cast work, but also did traditional silver work, such as with this wonderful bracelet. A vintage piece of history of a Navajo silversmith and his work.
