Mark Yazzie creates some of the most intricate and balanced jewelry coming out of the Navajo nation today. His clean techniques and attention to decorative details are testaments to his thirty years of mastering the many traditional and contemporary silversmithing skills evident in his work.
Mark was born in Fort Definance, Arizona and raised in the reservation community of wide ruins. Back in the mid-seventies, as Native American jewelry began a resurgence in worldwide attention and popularity, Mark began to do his silversmithing professionally at 3 Hogans, near the Arizona and New Mexico border. Through the years, and with his eventual move to Gallup, New Mexico, he has crafted probably every type of jewelry in the Navajo tradition -- squash blossom necklaces, concho belts, storyteller bracelets, earrings and rings. Thousands of beautiful silver adornments and hundreds of pieces of turquoise later, his creative talents now bring us masterfully hewn jewelry, resplendent designs with high grade stones nestled in cradles of delicate silver leaves, berries and vines.
His designs in silver, gold, copper and stone are collected and enjoyed by a growing jewelry following worldwide. ALL SALES FINAL & ALL ITEMS AS IS. Please be sure to read all policies!
