He subsequently attended Riverside Indian School in southern California after which he began his silversmithing career as an apprentice to the extraordinary Navajo silversmith, Fred Peshlakai, son of Slender-Maker-of-Silver and one of the true giants in the history of Navajo silversmithing, at Peshlakais shop in nearby Los Angeles in the 1920s. Taliman subsequently moved to New Mexico in the late 1920‘s where he worked as a benchsmith in various prominent Indian trading post shops such as Maisels in Albuquerque, Spanish and Indian Trading in Santa Fe and Julius Gans Southwest Arts and Crafts also in Santa Fe where he worked alongside such Navajo silversmithing luminaries as Mark Chee and Ambrose and Sam Roanhorse before going on his own in the late 1940s. In 1953, after marrying a Santa Clara Pueblo woman, Taliman moved to Santa Clara Pueblo 30 miles or so north of Santa Fe where he continued making silver and also taught silversmithing until his death in 1967. \u003cbr\u003eListed with ExportYourStore.com","brand":"Estate Fresh Austin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52003134570712,"sku":"10lssogsdg4skdjfad1gsfsh","price":1250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0677\/6284\/7960\/files\/il_fullxfull.8317779053_1vfu.jpg?v=1784523816","url":"https:\/\/estatefreshaustin.com\/id\/products\/david-taliman-navajo-cochiti-pueblo-stamped-sterling-silver-turquoise-pin-brooch","provider":"Estate Fresh Austin","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
