Details

RAINDROPS are seen frequently throughout Native American jewelry. Sterling silver drops or "raindrops" are a traditional design element. They can be smooth and highly polished or they can be starlike and oxidized.

TWISTED WIRE metalworking is a very old technique used by many Southwestern tribes. It can be found in both vintage and modern pieces.

LAPIS LAZULI Exotic sounding Lapis Lazuli is a natural blue stone, the very best of which is found in Afghanistan where it has been mined since ancient times. Once powdered and used to paint illuminated manuscripts and as clothing dye for royals only, today lapis is a staple in the colorful fashion statements of Southwest fashionistas.
