Native Beauty

 

The Navajo are an Athabascan people who migrated into the Four Corners region of the American southwest roughly 600 years ago. When they settled there, they were farmers and herders. However, when they came into contact with the Spaniards, they learned silver smithing skills and soon became top-notch jewelry deigners.

Today, the most popular Navajo materials are silver, turquoise, coral, lapis lazuli, and malachite. They also use black onyx and several varieties of oyster shell.

Navajo Country Images 

This is the land where the Dine people live. A stunning but stark somewhat barren land of high desert, deep canyons, and colorful rock formations.

About CrypticFragments

I am an artist who gets around! The world, that is! My lenses strive to bring together those two passions. I love to create and promote regional art gift products, ethnic handicrafts, and to showcase design/decor styles which appeal to me, whether they are Native American, Asian or tropical.
I have a passion for blue glass, blue and white pottery, southwestern Native handicrafts, tribal jewelry, funky socks, and...pink flamingos!
I also happen to love cats.
