Aaron Anderson Navajo Tufa Cast Sterling Cuff Bracelet. Very heavy solid cuff 135.7 grams. 6.5" inside circumference including the 1" gap. 1.75" wide in center, tested sterling.
Navajo silversmith Aaron Anderson was born 1970 in Gallup, New Mexico, on the edge of the Navajo Reservation. Aaron is from a family of artists. He would watch his step-father (Will Begay), and uncle (Wilford Henry) produce exceptional work, and began helping them in 1991. Aaron has been an active silversmith since 1996. He is known for his tufa cast jewelry, and says his inspiration comes from Charles Loloma. Every cast piece is hand carved and completely unique as the tufa blocks can only be used once.
Aaron, a third generation artist, is a leader in the Native American art community.
He is very passionate about his work and has no problem sharing his thoughts with the world. His creativity and workmanship speaks for itself and is highly valued among art collectors and fellow artists around the world. Aaron uses elements from his strong Christian faith as well as traditional Native American designs.
Aaron has won many blue ribbons at every show he enters, including eight best in casting at the famed Gallup Intertribal Ceremonial. Today he shows at the Indigenous fine art market in Santa Fe and the Native Jewelers Society.
