Take a trip with us down Historic Route 66 to find a jewel of the American Southwest, the authentic Navajo Statement Necklace. A genuine Navajo Statement necklace is the true pinnacle of Native American craftsmanship and heritage. We are proud to say that each detail of this piece was completely handmade by the artist using the same techniques pioneered by his indigenous ancestors almost 200 years ago. The artist has permanently oxidized this piece to create a vintage patina requiring minimal maintenance.
What Makes Us Different: We are not manufacturers. Our pieces are made in small batches on kitchen tables and family workshops in remote areas of the Navajo and Zuni reservations of New Mexico. We are proud to support these artists by developing projects that provide empowerment and employment through the artistic expression of their culture.
