1920s Navajo made bracelet |
This example of a Navajo-made silver and turquoise bracelet is an beautiful display of true southwest Indigenous asthetic.
I really like this bracelet for its simple, yet very complex design. Amazing!
Created as an homage to my desert ancestors, I focus on the historical significance of Indigenous southwestern tribal adornment culture and the perpetuation of those adornment practices perpetuated into the 21st century. In honor of my Navajo & Hopi Pueblo People & my ancestral matriarchs, and male relatives who adorned themselves with elements of the earth. Be Matriarch. Hózhó Nashá- Beauty all Around. Venaya Yazzie
