Juan Willie Navajo Artist, Sterling Cuff Bracelet with Crosses

About the Item

Navajo artist Juan Willie Sterling Cuff Bracelet with crosses. Measurements: Outside: 2-1/2" Diameter x 1 1/2" Wide. The circumference is 7 1/2." Fits approximately 7 to 7 1/2" wrist. Signed: Sterling & Juan Willie. Condition: Excellent. For the past 45 years, the Willie Family has been making exquisite traditional silver jewelry. They specialize in bracelets, pendants, rings, buckles and concho belts. They reside just west of Albuquerque in To’hajilee, one of the three Navajo ‘pocket’ reservations, previously known as ‘Canoncito.’ The Willie clan was introduced to silversmithing when the oldest son, Lonnie, attended the Albuquerque Indian School in the early 70s and began developing his own designs which he shared with his family. The Willies are well-known for their own handmade stamps used to create bold designs. Their stamping designs include stars, chevrons, balls, ovals, diamonds, hearts, Greek crosses, and many others. They use heavy-gauge (16) for their bracelets and pendants. The current silversmith-clan members are Laura, Melissa, Ronnie, Rudy, and Juan.
