1970's Justin Morris Navajo Sterling Turquoise and coral pendant/necklace. 24"<br>necklace, 3" x 2.25" pendant all with no issues. 74.8 grams total.<br><br>Silversmiths Justin and Irene Morris began making jewelry over 50 years ago. At<br>that particular time in American History many Native Americans were turning to<br>art to bring in extra income to support their families (particularly those<br>without college educations); he got the idea from his Grandpa Bitchittti. Not<br>surprisingly, Grandpa proved to be right. In the mid sixties, Southwestern<br>Indian jewelry started to make its way into mainstream America, finding its way<br>across Sacs of Fifth Avenue Catalogs to featured articles in Arizona Highways.<br>Before Justin decided to take up silver, he was a instructional aide for the<br>Government at Dilcon Boarding School. Morris recalls Grandpa looking out for the<br>livelihood of the family and notes, "the idea (for me to become a silversmith)<br>was all Grandpa's...the learning (however) was all self-taught."<br><br>Over the next few years, Morris began to learn and refine the skilled trait of<br>not only fabricating jewelry from sheets of silver and turquoise but also<br>learned the art of marketing. He managed to establish--over the course of 50<br>years--a clientele that spanned from as close as Sedona, Arizona to as far away<br>as Frankfort, Germany. Also over the next few years would come Justin and<br>Irene's children, Charles, Luskey, Calamity, and Keturah who would also take up<br>silversmithing. Today, the business is a family affair and Justin accredits his<br>success to his children's participation in the business and the support of his<br>wife Irene, "(Everyone) They all helped out in the shop, (the children) ever<br>since they were small...working together has brought us closer together." And<br>from the looks of it has kept them together as well.<br><br>Being in the business for over 50 years hasn't however been without its hard<br>times. The Morrises, for business proposes, decided rather than continue to<br>wholesale to retailers to take the business directly to his customers through a<br>market place venue. In the early 90's Justin and his family decided to start to<br>explore these markets. The bonus of exploring markets provided the Morrises with<br>the opportunity that they very rarely had--to meet collectors of his jewelry.<br>These markets also allowed the Morris name to take their business to a wider<br>range of customers, enabling them to hone business according to their customer's<br>needs.<br><br>Over the past years Morris has been able to instinctively, wield his business<br>according to seasons and market places which at times--the family unanimously<br>have admitted--have been a hard study. Surprisingly, the heard times, the<br>Morrises admit, are what measure the high points, which for them were building<br>the family business name. And even in the dreariest of times, which Morrises<br>have confessed their share, they comment, "you keep your mind on the Creator,<br>and keep laughter close." The both of which have propelled his business forward<br>in to the unknown. Today they, the Morrises, together, continue to forge into<br>unknowable.

1970's Peter Deneen Studio Pottery Ashtray. Really nice ashtray to use for whatever you want from the 70's or 80's. 5" wide x 2 1/8" tall. Peter Deneen began his lifelong journey with ceramics while studying pottery at Luther College in Decorah, Iowa. During this period he also began attending Marguerite Wildenhain’s Pond Farm School (located in northern California) in 1968. Peter went on to earn his M.A. from the University of Iowa in 1971. Inspired By Art & History During this time, Peter caught the inspirational fire of the Bauhaus movement of Walter Gropius in Post World War I Germany. The main thrust of the Bauhaus “was to create an environment which would nurture the bond between art, industry and trade through education; to insure the cooperation of industry and artists in the field of mass production.” ESTABLISHING DENEEN POTTERY In 1972, Peter and Mary Deneen established their first studio and showroom at Park Square Court in the Lowertown neighborhood of St. Paul. Here they began producing hand thrown functional and decorative pottery and dinnerware. “Form follows function,” was embedded within their work through the teachings from Marguerite Wildenhain, recalling the Bauhaus lessons she learned from Gerhard Marcks. It was during this time that Mary started to produce more commemorative items and ceramic figures, while launching a “Bear Essentials” line. White Picture corner top leftWhite Picture corner top rightWhite Picture corner bottom leftWhite Picture corner bottom rightEarly Days of Deneen Pottery 1974 PARK SQUARE COURT IN LOWERTOWN • “The Spin of a potter’s wheel brings prosperity, unfettered life-style.” This was the title of the article that ran in a local St. Paul publication around 1974. “Peter Deneen sits at his potter’s wheel, fingers fashioning burnt-cinnamon clay into pots and plates, goblets and candle-holders, tall, corked canisters and small spice bottles.” At this time, the Deneens wanted to open retail outlets similar to Pottery Barn, but make all of the products at their Lowertown studio. A favorite quote (of the current office) staff has Peter saying. “We’ll never be more than a handful of people. I’d never get larger than three stores,” says Peter.” “Don’t say ‘never,'” interjects Mary.” Wow, how the path has deviated from the plans made in 1974! tw129

Peter went on to earn his M.A. from the University of Iowa in 1971.<br><br>Inspired By Art & History<br>During this time, Peter caught the inspirational fire of the Bauhaus movement of<br>Walter Gropius in Post World War I Germany. The main thrust of the Bauhaus “was<br>to create an environment which would nurture the bond between art, industry and<br>trade through education; to insure the cooperation of industry and artists in<br>the field of mass production.”<br><br>ESTABLISHING DENEEN POTTERY<br><br>In 1972, Peter and Mary Deneen established their first studio and showroom at<br>Park Square Court in the Lowertown neighborhood of St. Paul. Here they began<br>producing hand thrown functional and decorative pottery and dinnerware.<br><br>“Form follows function,” was embedded within their work through the teachings<br>from Marguerite Wildenhain, recalling the Bauhaus lessons she learned from<br>Gerhard Marcks. It was during this time that Mary started to produce more<br>commemorative items and ceramic figures, while launching a “Bear Essentials”<br>line.<br><br>White Picture corner top leftWhite Picture corner top rightWhite Picture corner<br>bottom leftWhite Picture corner bottom rightEarly Days of Deneen Pottery<br>1974<br>PARK SQUARE COURT IN LOWERTOWN<br>•<br>“The Spin of a potter’s wheel brings prosperity, unfettered life-style.”<br>This was the title of the article that ran in a local St. Paul publication<br>around 1974. “Peter Deneen sits at his potter’s wheel, fingers fashioning<br>burnt-cinnamon clay into pots and plates, goblets and candle-holders, tall,<br>corked canisters and small spice bottles.”<br><br>At this time, the Deneens wanted to open retail outlets similar to Pottery Barn,<br>but make all of the products at their Lowertown studio. A favorite quote (of the<br>current office) staff has Peter saying. “We’ll never be more than a handful of<br>people. I’d never get larger than three stores,” says Peter.” “Don’t say<br>‘never,'” interjects Mary.” Wow, how the path has deviated from the plans made<br>in 1974!<br>isshelf

The organization was<br>formally founded in 1948 and chartered by the State of Texas in<br>1951. Its members were some of the first responders on the scene<br>when President Kennedy was assassinated, and the new reporting<br>standards established nationwide afterward bolstered the club’s<br>appeal to professionals. The Press Club of Dallas moved locations<br>frequently over the years, residing most recently at the Women’s<br>Museum in Fair Park. The organization currently maintains a board<br>of directors but has no physical location.1<br>The organization’s most notable activities are its annual<br>Gridiron show, Katie Awards, and roasts. The Gridiron show<br>began in 1951 and was modelled on the national one staged in<br>Washington, D.C. Originally consisting of “biting satire,” the<br>performance shifted towards a Broadway-esque style during the<br>late 1970s, but continued to lampoon events in Dallas. The<br>Griddle, a satirical newspaper, was produced and sold at the shows<br>to generate additional revenue. The Katie Awards ceremony began<br>in 1958. It honored “excellence in journalism” and attracted large<br>numbers of members of the press due to the prestige associated<br>with winning one. The Press Club of Dallas also annually roasted<br>prominent local citizens. These events serve as fundraisers for<br>journalism scholarships offered by the organization.2

Absolutely no damage or wear whatsoever.<br>This vase represents his early work he was producing at Pilchuck while gaffing<br>for Dale Chihuly.<br><br>William Morris was born in Carmel, California in 1957. He is an American glass<br>artist who has been able to change the history of art within his lifetime.<br>Morris was educated at California State University in Chico, California as well<br>as Central Washington University in Ellensburg, Washington. In 1978, Morris<br>arrived at the Pilchuck Glass School and found work initially as a driver.<br>Later, he worked with Dale Chihuly, the founder of the school, and eventually<br>became his chief gaffer in the 1980s. Morris remained with Chihuly for about 10<br>years as his chief assistant before deciding to form his own studio and develop<br>his own artistic style of glass blowing.<br><br>For more than twenty-five years, William Morris has captivated and intrigued the<br>art community with hauntingly evocative and beautiful glass sculptures. He has<br>captured the imagination time and again by creating objects that appear to be<br>ancient stone or woodcarvings, not the modern glass sculptures they actually<br>are. His art speaks of human origins, myth, ancestry, and ancient civilizations.<br>It symbolizes a harmony between humanity and nature and provides a ghost-like<br>bond to the world around us – a world that is often forgotten, ignored, and<br>abused.<br><br>Morris gathers much of his inspiration from ancient cultures from around the<br>world – Egyptian, Asian, Native American – all peoples who respected and admired<br>the land they inhabited. Because of this, Morris’s artwork has become something<br>all its own: culturally distinct and yet familiar to all cultures. His pieces<br>embody a spiritual quality that sharply contrasts old beliefs with those of the<br>modern world. These objects speak to our senses and continuously beg us to<br>explore them further.<br><br>Morris achieved much success during his career and retired in 2007. He spent<br>over twenty-five years honing his skills and pushing the medium of glass further<br>than anyone, including himself, could ever have imagined.<br><br>Morris’ work can be found in numerous public collections including:<br><br>The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, NY; Corning Museum of Glass, Corning,<br>NY; American Glass Museum, Millville, NJ; Hokkaido Museum of Modern Art,<br>Hokkaido, Japan; Musee Des Arts Decoratifs, Paris, France; Auckland Museum,<br>Auckland, New Zealand and the Victoria and Albert Museum, London, England.

Francis Jones was born in 1944 and has been a silversmith since she was a young girl. Her father, a fourth-generation silversmith, taught her the intricate art of metalwork, particularly sand casting, which was a specialty in her family. This technique, along with other methods she has mastered, allows her to create jewelry that is rich in texture and detail. Over the years, her reputation as an artist has grown, and she has won numerous awards for her contributions to Native American jewelry. As a member of the Navajo Nation, Francis Joness designs are deeply rooted in her culture. Her pieces often carry symbolic meanings, with elements that represent both the natural world and the spiritual beliefs of her people. Each piece is marked with her signature hallmark, "FJ," a symbol of her dedication to quality and authenticity. The Artistry Behind Francis Jones‘s Jewelry Collection Francis Jones, a renowned Navajo artist, has captivated the world with her exquisite jewelry designs that seamlessly blend traditional techniques with modern aesthetics. Her mastery of the art of sand casting, a process that involves pouring molten silver into hand-carved molds made from compacted sand, is the foundation of her unique and distinctive style. The sand-casting method employed by Francis Jones is a labor-intensive process that makes sure each piece is one-of-a-kind, bearing the artist‘s personal touch and signature. This ancient technique passed down through generations of Navajo silversmiths, allows for the creation of intricate patterns and textures that cannot be replicated by modern manufacturing methods. In addition to her expertise in sand casting, Francis Jones features stunning stone settings and hand-stamped details in her jewelry designs. The result is a timeless and distinctive collection that attracts both collectors and everyday wearers.
