Tested and guaranteed solid 14k gold accents on both pendant and necklace on sterling silver, circa last quarter of the 20th century. 25" necklaceJACK TOM(Navajo b. 1948) Jack Tom is an award-winning silversmith most well-known for his gold overlay on silver jewelry, impeccable execution and the finest stones in both traditional and contemporary designs. Jack Tom was born of the Salt Clan and for the Bitter Water Clan in 1948 at Smoke Signal in Keams Canyon, Arizona on the Navajo reservation. He began his jewelry career in 1971 and continues to produce beautiful work with his distinctive blend of 14k gold and silver or silver with stones. It was also the year Mary Begay and Jack Tom were married. Mary started making jewelry by fabricating the beads that display Jack’s pendants. Mary assisted in the creation process as well which aided in completing a joint design style linking their rich heritage and the 21st Century.Until recently, he and his wife Mary made some of the most striking contemporary necklaces and earrings to be found today. They are no longer married, but each continues to create wonderful pieces on his and her own.Jack has a deep appreciation and respect for his ancient Navajo heritage and the symbols of his rich culture. Jack composes his craft by incorporating ancient symbols with contemporary images for a distinct look to his pieces. His great-grandmother was Hopi so he uses Hopi patterns as well as the traditional Navajo designs. He also incorporates Navajo rug patterns and Anasazi patterns in his work. He believes the “Old Ones” left their designs for others (him) to use.Jack is self-taught silversmith. He began his artist career by working for a small jewelry shop in Holbrook, Arizona. He worked as a buffer and did small tasks for other silversmiths. After working as a welder and in other construction related jobs, in 1985 he decided to take his creative ideas and become his own artist. He began with traditional Navajo designs. Over the years, his jewelry has evolved into great detail, high quality, and unique designs that incorporate 14 kt gold, sterling silver, turquoise, corals, and opals. In 1979, while working on the railroad, Jack was struck by lightning. He returned home to his father, a Medicine Man, who performed a Shooting Way ceremony. This restored Jack’s health and harmony. He uses a lot of lightning patterns in his jewelry. Today, Jack is always looking for new techniques to learn such as tufa casting, texture rolling (which he learned from Zuni silversmith Martin Panteah) and sandcasting to express his creative ideas in multiple ways. The sandcasting provides an alternative to the normal mirror-finish polish most silversmiths give to the back of their work. The changes are part of the process that allows his work to continue to evolve and enchant.

While each artist has his own individual style, they all share an affinity for complex engraved and hand stamped geometric designs and they are all a part of recreating and popularizing the old Navajo designs of the early 20th century. They call their style Navajo Revival Style.He filled his old style silver with lots of stamp patterns and used high quality pieces of turquoise. Gary smithed silver from the age of twelve. His work, like that of his brother Sunshine, is present in the collections of the Heard Museum in Phoenix and Gary has won numerous awards for his work.

Circa last quarter of the 20th century. Last hole on the belt is 31", please don't ask me for a discount and I keep the belt. I'm selling the buckle set by a famous Navajo silversmith, I did not look at the belt.Thomas Curtis was an award winning, self-taught Navajo Silversmith; a master who pursued his art for over 50 years. He is best known and loved for his painstakingly beautiful handcrafted precision stamp work in heavy-gauge silver creating sophistically stimulating jewelry. Born in 1942 into a family of skilled silversmiths, Thomas Curtis observed the secrets of his family’s finely crafted silver work and began creating traditional Navajo jewelry by the age of 12. Before committing himself completely to the art of metalsmithing, Curtis was a champion horseback rider and won many awards as a member of the All-Indian Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association performing bareback, bull riding and saddle bronc. The rodeo is where he was given his acclaimed surname, ‘Curtis’. Born as Thomas Redhorse, his family name was the source of many jokes while working in the rodeo and was given the name ‘Curtis’ by a stock contractor who wished him to be recognized for his riding talent and not overshadowed by a name. After somersaulting backwards off of a horse and injuring himself in 1969, Thomas left the rodeo to pursue his craft as a silversmith full time.Thomas Curtis grew up observing his uncle who was a blacksmith and had a business repairing wagons. “It was like today’s car garage, he had wagons lined up. I would help him, I was fascinated by all of the tools and I had an interest in working with metal.” Curtis elaborated on his fascinations with blacksmithing while working in the rodeo, and continued them into his jewelry making career by hand making the hardened steel die stamps that identified him as one of the premier Navajo silversmiths of his time. Thomas Curtis believed an artist should be a part of every process in the creation of their work, and he took monumental pride in the art of making his own die stamps for his harmonious arrangements. Curtis was often quoted finding inspiration for his pieces by, “looking at the ground, the sky, the plants, and the four seasons.” He also turned to sacred traditions, sourcing his patterns and descriptive style from traditional weavings, historic and contemporary construction from the 1890’s-1940’s, and adapted classic ketoh designs for the lids of the elaborate silver boxes he is known for. Thomas Curtis had an extreme talent for delicately balancing compositions of traditional design motifs with his intense skill, generating dramatic results with refined charisma. With only an 8th grade education he excelled as an artist and craftsman who, like his precision stampwork, deeply embedded a profound mark in the history of jewelry making, raising the standard for quality work and inspiring others to push themselves to greater heights. Thomas Curtis passed away June 29, 2013 and left behind a collection of finely crafted Navajo jewelry and a remarkably gifted daughter, Jennifer Curtis, who carries his legacy as a master silversmith creating exceptional work inspired by her father’s unyielding hard work and lifelong dedication to his art.

Weight and measurements in photos.Benny Armijo (1937-2022). Benny was a renowned master Navajo silversmith who specialized in this complex inlay and "corn row" type cobblestone inlay using high quality stones. His jewelry was featured on the Oprah Winfrey show and was collected by many high-profile artists from James Taylor, Charlie Daniels, to Hank Williams Jr. His pieces can be seen on many album covers of top music groups and are highly collectable today. His incredible sense of humor was as well-known as his jewelry. He was simply the most generous man that one could ever imagine, always helping complete strangers he encountered along the way. He was active from the early 70's until the late 20th century.. His older mark from the 1970's looks like a tadpole and has been misattributed to "Edward Zuni", but I'm 100% sure this is Benny Armijo's work and hallmark, it's been confirmed by his living relatives. Benny was born in Santa Fe, New Mexico Benito M Armijo Jr The older stamp he first used was to represent the letter C and letter M which stood for Chief Marcos. Many years later maybe around 1989 he stamped his jewelry with Benny Armijo. He lived in California for many years and returned to New Mexico and passed away January 2022. He was known for his stone inlay on what he called a Hopi wedding band in which all the stones were inlaid inside the ring or bracelet. Giving the thought that the beauty between the couple is in the eye of the beholder and the couple would choose the different color of stones and their meanings to be inlaid on their wedding bands.

Tested and guaranteed solid sterling silver with weight and measurements in pictures. Great condition with age appropriate wear, circa last quarter of the 20th century.LEO YAZZIELeo Yazzie has been designing and creating fine jewelry for more than 30 years. Born and raised at Black Mesa on the Navajo Reservation in northeastern Arizona, the influence of the land and his culture is a part of each piece of his contemporary and sophisticated jewelry.Leo uses both gold and silver to create jewelry with a unique combination of traditional and contemporary designs. “The inspiration for many of my designs came from watching my grandmother, mother and other women in the family weaving rugs. They told me their designs came from Spider. Now, I make designs inspired by the patterns they wove.”Leo’s patterns vary, from a delicate cutout border with intricate detail to bold geometrics. It might be a gold panel with a geometric motif overlaid on a silver pendant; a cut-out stepped pattern encircling a stone; or a lightning shaped band on a ring. Whatever the pattern, the effect is sophisticated and elegant.The classic use of turquoise and coral is a favorite combination of Leo’s. The coral may range from pale pink to a very deep red. Leo uses turquoise of the highest quality, sometimes rare pieces from famous mines that have been closed for years. “I love working with quality stones,” says Leo. To guarantee he’d always have the best materials to work with, Leo has collected high quality stones from gem shows and traders over the years.In addition to turquoise and coral, Leo uses other semi-precious stones from around the world like sugilite, lapis, gaspeite, white opals and more. Sugilite has gained in popularity since its introduction in the 1980s. Found in the Kalahari Desert of South Africa, this stone with its deep rich purple to soft lavender color works beautifully with turquoise, or on its own. Leo enjoys pairing it with the fire in white opals.Leo’s settings are all handmade, often built up layer-by-layer. Designs are sawed out and appliquéd. Rich multi-colored side inlay will often be added to highlight a larger stone or add accent colors to the design. He uses channel inlay on some pieces, with the stones precisely cut flush with each other, so that they almost appear to be one stone. Some pieces will have a sculptural inlay, where each stone is cut and shaped, then fitted together.Leo’s avant-garde work is fitting for today’s contemporary fashions. His attention to detail and craftsmanship is evident in each piece and reflects his willingness to take the time to let a design emerge.“I enjoy what I do and I like to take my time with each piece,” says Leo. He usually works on several pieces at a time, working with one and then setting it aside to work on another, or taking one of his long walks. “I usually work for three hours each morning and then leave the pieces alone,” says Leo. His long walks are important; they reconnect him with the land and life surrounding him.The care and time that Leo takes fabricating each of his pieces has resulted in his winning enough awards and ribbons to fill two large boxes. Today, Leo has stopped entering contests. “I wanted to make room for the younger artists,” says Leo. He may have stopped competing, but he has not stopped creating. This quiet man and gifted artist continues to innovate and dazzle us with his eye for color and attention to detail.
