Walt Doran (1953-2023) Southwestern Modernist silver bolo tie. No issues, weight and measurements in pics. Solid sterling, Walt passed away in 2023. Walt Doran Jewelry Designer and Belt Buckle Designer A Santa Fe native, Walt Doran grew up admiring the legendary Indian traders that were among his family friends. He spent hours in their galleries studying the painstaking workmanship that went into the old pawn jewelry. Curious about these pieces, he began to research their background and became fascinated with the process of making objects out of metal. In 1978 Walt left New Mexico for Europe. He traveled for three years, visiting Denmark, Holland, West Germany, Belgium, Switzerland, Czechoslovakia, France and Spain. Everywhere he went, Walt sought out and studied design, architecture, ironwork, painting and sculpture. “I went to every museum, every gallery, Walt says, I returned with hundreds of drawings and piles of photographs. Classic techniques such as stamping, chasing, repousee, overlay, inlay and engraving came to life under the new vision formed by Walts European design study. In addition, Walts love of New Mexico and the work of the Indian traders he grew up admiring began to be reflected in his work. Walts silver jewelry has been featured in the film Dances with Wolves, and his expert knowledge is sought after by local artists. He believes that a work of silver must be “significant, deeply personal, and a totally solemn outward mark of an interior intention. At its core function, though, Walts goal is down to earth; mostly, he says, “I want to make art that people will keep and wear for a long time, and hand down to their grandchildren.

TW14, Tw17 Walt grew up in San Antonio and, after serving in the Army, graduated from The University of the Incarnate Word where he later received an Outstanding Alumnus Award. He married Cynthia Vela, also a UIW graduate, in 1975, and they enjoyed 40 years together. After finding his artistic passion in creating beautiful, handmade, one of a kind pottery, Walt and Cynthia opened their shop, Village Gallery, in San Antonio's historic La Villita and a production studio in McQueeney, Texas. He and Cynthia loved participating in craft fairs around the country with a special fondness for the "Starving Artists Show" along the San Antonio River Walk and La Villita. They enjoyed a successful artistic venture for over forty years and their pottery has been appreciated across the globe. His unique pottery was collected by dignitaries from around the world, including the Queen of England, Ronald Reagan, and other notables, as well as being featured by San Antonio's sister city in Japan. As a master potter, Walt enjoyed mentoring professional potters from around the world, sharing his technique and skill. Later in his career, he loved teaching Ceramics at Texas Lutheran University in Seguin, Texas where he contributed both in and out of the classroom. With the help of TLU students and faculty, he introduced the "Empty Bowls Project" to the Seguin area, raising funds to help feed the hungry.

After<br>receiving a BFA in 1965, he joined a staff of six artists in a commercial ad<br>agency and as he says: “I learned more in that one year than I did in 5 years in<br>college." A bigger job was offered to him and he spent a brief career as an<br>advertising director in a large department store. A move to Mexico to study art<br>at the Instituto Allende in San Miguel de Allende was a major influence. The<br>color of Mexico is evident throughout the art he has produced during his career.<br>With an MFA degree under his belt, he received a teaching contract from Hardin<br>Simmons University in Abilene, Texas and later opened the art department at<br>Western Texas College, completing 8 years of experience as a college art<br>instructor.<br><br><br>After spending the summer of 1976 in Egypt on a study grant that he had received<br>from the college, he made the decision to become a full-time professional<br>artist.

In the December 1978 issue of Southwest Art Magazine, he was<br>featured in an 11-page article about his art. He continued to produce<br>watercolors and enjoyed selling his work in art fairs in Texas, Colorado, and<br>California.<br><br>In 1982 he read a magazine article about the need for an adventure artist and<br>began traveling the world using his skills as an artist on scientific<br>expeditions in Peru, Brazil, Venezuela, Spain, and Easter Island, to name a few<br>of the 49 countries stamped in his passport. Warren travels the world with a<br>sketchbook and watercolors to record his impressions of the various cultures and<br>peoples he encounters.<br><br>In the early 90’s he built an 840 sq. ft. painting studio on the back of his<br>wooded property and took up acrylic painting; then he produced hand-pulled<br>serigraphs and soft ground etchings. One of his collectors asked him to create a<br>sculpture for women who had survived breast cancer. The sculpture was completed<br>and he was captivated by working with clay. That was the first bronze he had<br>created since his student days in Mexico. A large bronze commission was awarded<br>to him and a new direction emerged. Today Warren laughs at the thought that for<br>20 years painting in watercolor was all he ever wanted to do. In 2004 he built a<br>second studio dedicated to sculpture.<br><br>Today, Warren and his wife, Kitty Biel, who has a dual career as an independent<br>CPA , Cruise Planner, and Travel Agent, live and work from their spacious home,<br>two studios and sculpture garden in Austin, Texas.

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.

William Lawrence deMatteo (1923-1988) Hand Hammered Sterling silver leaf dish<br>6.5" x 4.5" x 114.5 grams with no issues.<br><br>William Lawrence deMatteo (12 October 1923–14 May 1988), silversmith and master<br>craftsman, was born in New York City and was the son of Elizabeth Rommelman<br>deMatteo and William Gaitano deMatteo, an accomplished silversmith who<br>immigrated to the United States from Acciaroli, Salerno, Italy, with his family<br>when he was a boy. William Lawrence deMatteo grew up in suburban Bergenfield,<br>New Jersey, and attended schools in nearby Tenafly, all the while observing and<br>absorbing his father's skillful work. DeMatteo began studying sculpture and fine<br>arts at Columbia University in 1941, but after the United States entered World<br>War II he joined the navy in November 1942 and served in the Pacific theater as<br>a torpedo er pilot. On 14 November 1946, in Asbury Park, he married Jayne<br>Walpole, a painter who later cofounded an art gallery. They had three daughters<br>and one son. DeMatteo resumed his apprenticeship with his father and may have<br>continued his studies at Columbia before being recalled to active duty with the<br>navy during the Korean War. He was discharged in 1953.<br><br>Bill deMatteo, as he was usually known, visited the restored capital of colonial<br>Virginia while he was still in the service and asked to see the silversmith's<br>shop. Told that Colonial Williamsburg had none, he saw an opportunity for<br>himself. Soon after deMatteo left the navy, he returned to Williamsburg and in<br>July 1953 joined the staff as a silversmith. He created the entire silversmith<br>program and was responsible for the James Geddy Silversmith's Shop, where he<br>trained shopkeepers in interpreting craftsmanship to visitors, instructed and<br>supervised apprentices in all kinds of metalworking, and handcrafted<br>reproductions of eighteenth-century silver items for sale in the shop. DeMatteo<br>also revived colonial silversmith James Craig's Williamsburg shop, "At the Sign<br>of the Golden Ball." In January 1963 deMatteo was promoted to Staff Master<br>Craftsman and Master Silversmith.<br><br>In accord with Colonial Williamsburg's motto—that the future may learn from the<br>past—deMatteo spent much of his time in educational and advertising efforts.<br>Working from a research report that Colonial Williamsburg staff member Thomas K.<br>Bullock had prepared, in 1956 deMatteo published The Silversmith in<br>Eighteenth-Century Williamsburg–An Account of his Life & Times, & of his Craft,<br>a short history of silversmithing and techniques used in colonial days. DeMatteo<br>also provided much of the information for a 1971 video program, Silversmith of<br>Williamsburg, and the accompanying manual. In the film he demonstrated every<br>stage of making an eighteenth-century silver coffeepot, beginning with receiving<br>silver coins or scraps to be melted, discussing details of the commission with a<br>customer, methods and design, and shaping the piece with his hammer and<br>burnishing the completed coffeepot. In 1971 and 1972, deMatteo studied design,<br>silversmithing, and methods at Sir John Cass Department of Art of the City<br>London Polytechnic, and with professional London silversmiths; in 1975 he became<br>the first American craftsman to be elected an honorary foreign associate of the<br>Worshipful Company of Goldsmiths, in London.<br><br>As his skill became apparent to staff and visitors, deMatteo received many<br>requests to design and craft commemorative gifts. A town-crier's bell that he<br>made for Colonial Williamsburg to present to Sir Winston Churchill in 1955<br>appeared in a picture of Churchill on the cover of Life magazine the following<br>year. DeMatteo designed presentation pieces for the White House Correspondents'<br>Association annual presentations to Presidents John F. Kennedy, Lyndon B.<br>Johnson, Richard M. Nixon, Gerald R. Ford, and Jimmy Carter. He designed<br>numerous handcrafted gifts for visiting presidents, queens, kings, and prime<br>ministers, and the Department of State commissioned deMatteo to craft silver<br>trays for presentation to Egyptian president Anwar Sadat and Israeli prime<br>minister Menachem Begin at the Camp David Accords in 1978.<br><br>For a commission from the American Telephone and Telegraph Company in 1976 in<br>recognition of the centennial of Alexander Graham Bell's invention of the<br>telephone, deMatteo produced an abstract silver piece, a departure from his<br>colonial-style masterpieces, inscribed with Bell's first words transmitted over<br>his telephone. Despite his finesse, he was a modest man who insisted that he was<br>a craftsman, not an artist. DeMatteo was content to make beautiful utilitarian<br>objects that he believed did not rise to the level of imagination and required<br>of an artist. His devotion to excellence was acknowledged by the American<br>Institute of Architects, which in 1960 gave him its craftsmanship medal for high<br>achievement in industrial arts.<br><br>After twenty-six years with Colonial Williamsburg, in 1979 deMatteo left and<br>moved with his family to Alexandria. Together with his son, Chip deMatteo, and<br>Philip Thorp, a colleague at Colonial Williamsburg, he opened Hand & Hammer<br>Silversmiths. DeMatteo continued to explore and extend his range beyond<br>eighteenth-century forms. He was an affable man, noted for his disarming smile.<br>He was an intense perfectionist who was deaf to his surroundings while sitting<br>at his bench shaping precious metals with his hammer. He was also a resourceful<br>artisan who was known to make his own hammers when he failed to find suitable<br>ones in the market. DeMatteo once remarked that "being a silversmith is just a<br>delightful, lovely way to go through life" and that while he was not fully<br>satisfied with his silver work he was "very satisfied with the life I lead."<br>William Lawrence deMatteo died of leukemia at an Alexandria hospital on 14 May<br>1988. His son, who continued to work at the Hand & Hammer Silversmiths,<br>preserved his ashes.

Willie Yazzie, Sr. (Navajo), 1928-1999 Fibbia della cintura in argento sovrapposto 2 "x 1 5/16" x 22,5 grammi senza problemi. Si adatta a una cintura da 1 pollice.Artista Navajo Overlay Willie YazzieDopo il successo dei modelli di overlay realizzati alla Hopi Guild, molti altri argentieri e negozi hanno incorporato l'overlay nei loro progetti (vedi Overlay is Not Sempre Hopi Made). Il commerciante Navajo Dean Kirk aprì la sua stazione commerciale a Manuelito, Nuovo Messico (tra Gallup e il confine con l'Arizona) nel gennaio 1941. I lavori in argento realizzati nel negozio di Dean erano tipicamente disegni di tipo turistico Navajo e marchiati UITA22 (sotto il marchio sotto gli auspici della United Indian Traders Association) fino al 1951 circa. Fu allora che Kirk progettò una serie di spille sovrapposte che sarebbero state realizzate dai fabbri Navajo al suo servizio incorporando i disegni Hohokam e Mimbres. Questi disegni si rivelarono molto popolari, come una pubblicità su un giornale del 1958 per Enchanted Mesa ad Albuquerque promuoveva "Dean Kirk's Navajo Overlay Silver". I pezzi sovrapposti realizzati nel negozio di Kirk erano raramente marchiati.Tuttavia, uno degli argentieri Navajo che lavorava per Dean Kirk era Willie Yazzie, che ne fece uno proprio segno distintivo e lo usò su pezzi realizzati nel negozio di Kirk.Molte delle seguenti informazioni furono trasmesse ad Alan Ferg (archivista e archeologo presso l'Arizona State Museum) da William P. (Willie) Yazzie, Jr, a febbraio 2018. L'indagine di Ferg su una fibbia di cintura sovrapposta in suo possesso, priva di segno distintivo, ha portato a informazioni precedentemente non registrate su Willie Yazzie, nonché all'identificazione di un ulteriore segno distintivo utilizzato dall'artista.Secondo Social Documenti di sicurezza, Willie A. Yazzie è nato a Chinle, Arizona nel 1928. Suo figlio dice di aver imparato l'arte dell'argenteria presso la stazione commerciale di Dean Kirk a Manuelito all'inizio degli anni '50, e di aver creato il suo segno distintivo (o segno distintivo) non più tardi del 1960, e successivamente volta che i suoi pezzi realizzati da Dean Kirk avrebbero incluso il segno distintivo del suo mestolo di zucca. I suoi progetti spesso incorporavano figure di animali come roadrunner o disegni Navajo tra cui Yeis e Father Sky. Non ha mai aggiunto "tamp work" o motivi strutturati ai disegni dello sfondo.Nel 1960 Ansel Hall, concessionario del Parco Nazionale di Mesa Verde, stava cercando un argentiere per fare dimostrazioni al parco durante i mesi estivi, Dean Kirk raccomandò Willie Yazzie e fu assunto da Hall. Willie lavorò a Mesa Verde nelle estati dal 1960 al 1983, tranne nel 1965 quando era malato. Yazzie ha creato un segno distintivo speciale per denotare i pezzi realizzati a Mesa Verde. Il marchio raffigura Square Tower House, una rovina all'interno del parco, ed è stato incluso con il segno del mestolo di zucca durante le estati del 1960-1964 e del 1966-1983.Willie A. Yazzie morì nel 1999, ma la sua famiglia , inclusa la vedova, la figlia e Willie Jr continuano la tradizione del lavoro di sovrapposizione di Willie. Willie Jr ha detto che sua sorella ha la maggior parte degli strumenti e dei francobolli del padre e che usa ancora il segno del mestolo di zucca. Willie usa principalmente le sue iniziali come segno distintivo, ma non fa più molti lavori in argento, è in pensione dal National Park Service dove era ranger al Canyon de Chelly. Willie, che vive a Chinle, ha detto che i suoi figli fanno un po' di oreficeria, ma che sono occupati e non hanno molto tempo per farlo.

(Willie) Yazzie, Jr, in<br>February 2018.

His designs often incorporated animal<br>figures such as roadrunners or Navajo designs including Yeis and Father Sky.

Willie worked at Mesa Verde<br>in the summers from 1960 to 1983, except for 1965 when he was sick. Yazzie<br>created a special hallmark to denote pieces he made at Mesa Verde. The mark<br>depicts Square Tower House, a ruin within the park, and was included with his<br>gourd dipper mark during the summers of 1960-1964 and 1966-1983.<br><br>Willie A. Yazzie died in 1999, but his family, including his widow, daughter and<br>Willie Jr continue the tradition of Willie’s overlay work. Willie Jr said that<br>his sister has most of their father’s tools and stamps, and that she still uses<br>the gourd dipper mark. Willie uses mostly his initials as his hallmark, but<br>doesn’t do much silverwork anymore, he is retired from the National Park Service<br>where he was a ranger at Canyon de Chelly. Willie, who lives in Chinle, said his<br>sons do a little silversmithing, but that they are busy and don’t have much time<br>for it.
