If you have an eye for
exquisite handmade Native American silver jewelry, we suggest you take a close
look at the amazing work of Navajo silver and goldsmith, Jennifer Curtis. She
is the daughter of legendary Navajo silversmith Thomas Curtis and, with his inspiration
and guidance, has taken this uniquely American jewelry to the level of world
class elegance and collectability.
Recently featured in a new
book highlighting extraordinary stamp artists, she has used some of her
father’s stamps along with her own to create jewelry that is both traditional
in spirit and timelessly contemporary in style. Her jewelry is simplicity and
elegance combined and is at home in the most formal of settings as well as at a
rollicking rodeo. That’s not easily done!
If you want to buy Jennifer Curtis Jewelry, you can
find items at online stores. However, you should check a few things before you
buy to ensure that you are purchasing authentic pieces by this special artist.
Most importantly, do your
research on the online store. Be sure to look for only those reputable
companies who are known for selling only authentic, handmade Native American
jewelry.
The best way is to
identify authentic jewelry is to check the hallmark. Also, ask the seller to
provide you with a certificate of authenticity that comes with every purchase.
The certification will clearly state the materials used, the artist who created
the piece and the fact that this company stands behind each piece it
sells.
