I love Lapis Lazuli (has Pyrite in it) and Malacite! My birthstone is Turquoise. I've been to the Navajo Gift Store in Arizona. The gentleman that worked there was so kind. He gave me background on a piece I had purchased back in the 1970's (I was 16 when I bought my bracket and it has a stone about the size of a golf ball in diameter. It was a bracelet designed by a Navajo Artist that became famous in the Art and I bought it in Tennessee, but knew it was Arizona Turquoise). He also helped me select a piece of Pottery, a gift for a friend whom happens to be Navajo and had moved from Nevada (she worked for/with me and had moved to Arkansas to one of our other lications, she was originally from right there in Arizona, the store is at the highway but on the edge of their reservation. Public is welcomed there.) I selected a piece that was Traditional Pottery, he said the older ladies make it and most if the younger artist make a different style. I just felt she was longing for her home and the environment of her culture., so I bought the original style. It was a truly good experience, something far more than a stop and gift purchase. There is something that vibrates far higher in many of the Native Americans I've met and share time with. There's also something that I noticed over time working with my friend Martina. We really shared several common beliefs, traditions, and foods that are common in both our cultures. Although I was born in the USA my lineage is Irish, and particularly Southwest Ireland, County Kerry. After DNA studies in about 2017 it was revealed that the Irish, particularly the Irish from the areas of Kerry and Cork are of Basque origin. Due to the area there was far less influence of other bloodlines like the Vikings, Angle/Saxons, and Normans, the invasions and the various runs to rape and pilage. They were correct as revealed in our family's DNA. My Mother was 100% Irish, 2nd generation on one side and 5th on the other, my G-grandad founded Lynchburg, VA in the late 1800's. On my dad's side my grandparents were 1 - Irish/German and Irish/Native American Cherrokee, Tennessee. That resulted in my being overwhelmingly Basque-Irish with < 7% German, Ashkenazi Jew, Native American. Doubtful if I share any lineage with Martina, *BUT,* worth noting that, although few realize what DNA and Ancient DNA is revealing: (first a pinch of background, the Basque People are the most unique group on the planet in that their language match no other, no European influence and the Basque are over 70% Rh(-) blood type, the Irish in our area 30%, as I am as well. Basque Country is located between Spain and France in the Pyrenees Mountain Range area. Their Oral History indicates they are of Atlantea lineage. Atlanteans. Although Mainstream Academia doesn't accept Oral History as a recognized authentic resource many other Academics give it credibility and it will come to be known as fact, as various research continues to support the reality. I do credit Oral History as reliable and often far more than written histories. The DNA of our Basque lineage *"is found in some East Coast Native Americans" the Iroquois is one and I believe it was in several tribes that are now extinct, due to disease encountered with explorers. Thus, as far fetched as it may have seemed at the time, I've come to realize just how limited Mainstream Academics and their ideas about History are, and people with boats travel! Note: A find in Windover, Florida of burial in a big type area preserved several grave sites of a Native Peoples whom had European DNA in their mix and I haven't verified just what lineage but I would bet it is Basque aka Atlantean. Now I have degrees in Sociology, Journalism, and History, 5 years research in Ancient History, and current History studies through Yale University, plus I'm not the least bit bothered by the limited minds that accuse Authentic Academics of Psuedo-Science, I know what the findings are saying and how much History, Artifacts, Fossils/Skeletons, Oral Histories are ignored in order for Mainstream Academia to protect their Paradigm, so I know who is more Scientific and Ethical. The Native People are Authentic and their Oral Histories are Authentic, it is our lack of known facts and trouble interpreting the meanings that challenge the clarity. I just was moved to share this story today and if someone reads it I hope it inspires them to rethink their History knowledge and keep an open mind for the greater truths. We have some adjustments to make to be in the trier reality. ...and the Native Peoples can tell us what that is. Best Wellbeing to all... GO IRISH !!! 🍀
I have some Varicite from Utah that is very gemy. Got it from Art from God rock shop in Golden Valley AZ. I've made a few cabchons from it and they turned out beautiful. Not stabilized, 100% natural. I'm going to do 4 more soon. Hopefully I can get some more from him, it's amazing quality.
I am Native American Jeweler struggling to develop new styles. I found the video very educational. Thank you very much. I worked at Window Rock and made friends with several silversmiths but now live in southern Arizona.
Greetings from Wisconsin. Thank you for a very concise, informative delivery. I actually own a pair of Mary Teller earrings purchased from Silver Eagle in Oconomowoc WI and they are beautiful. Best wishes!
Learned a lot . Thanks for the video lesson . I really like Native American jewelry . Definitely will check out the silver jewelry your family makes , thanks again
I loved listening to you and all your knowledge. However, I want to point out that I was not able to access you website because there were too many choices of non related sites and no direct link to purchase jewelry from you. Am I mistaken? It should be easier and this could increase your sales.
Thank You that was very informative definetly more across the board info then many others offer. I am going to check ouy your parents website good job young man your very easy to listen to, and keep peoples attention a naturel leader is in your future. Go slow... I don't see belt buckles or mens cowboy weatern ties using turquoise and silver I remember seeing them when I was young and dont see them curious I guess I would wear them I have some interesting buckles but would like to dind out more about them thank you
Thanks for posting this video. I really enjoyed learning about the history behind Native American jewelry. I have a couple pieces of jewelry I would like to learn more about. Do you know of anyone who could tell me more about the Zuni jewelry?
Wow, I got to be your #10,000 subscriber. Thank you for such a great info. Do you have this info in written form? I am beginning to learn and sell Native American jewelry and turquoise. Thank you for sharing your years of experience.
You rule. Thanks so much. Glad I subscribed. Is it true that the older turquoise was only picked up from the ground, because (I'm talking about Navajo) the Diné were not allowed to "take" from mother nature, but if it was available on the ground, it was fine for use?
Love the videos, very informative! I couldn't get onto your parents' jewelry website, is it still in operation? I hope so! Please let me know. I got an error code:(
so informative with loads of great nuggets from start to finish! I have a beautiful green ring made by sampson yazzie, it looks almost identical to that green you showed here at the top right! Gorgeous ring & stone both. Off to checkout your folks website! I want to apprentice & learn the craft....anyone you know of that's willing to take on a fast learning, hard working apprentice?
Real Turquoise jewelry doesn't have to be Native American. The Iranians have had quality turquoise for thousands of years. I agree American turquoise is highly prized. But the fact I'm white, doesn't diminish my work.
I did some house work for two old ladies,,they told me that they didnt have money to pay me,,i told them is ok...so i did it for free,,but when i was done,,they gave me on a handkerchief a bunch of rings and necklace ,they told me is from the americans indians,,all turqouis some green ,some blue..,all ladies rings,,
Today once again, I not only did learned something new, but something amazing of one of our great and beautiful native Nations. Thanks a lot, daybreakwarrior.
Very interesting history of native american jewelry, I really like the laid back explanations you give. Another great learning video. Thank you. I also love your collection and the expertise of your parents work.
Amazing video. I just bought a old arrowhead pendent with torquoise inlay and I was told it's an old piece from the southwest. I am waiting for it to arrive as it a gift to myself as I'm a Sagittarius and it's my birth stone.
I can not thank you enough for all the knowledge you gave me. I found this very educational. Please continue with more videos. I also enjoyed your poster. Native Americans have always been a topic of history that I enjoy very much. I have visited Arizona and gone to a few festivals. I will keep in mind the one in Santa Fe, New Mexico. I enjoy and wish I could afford so many of the native american jewelry
I dream my first turquoise ring 18yrs ago I was confused because I have never seen jewelry like that before. Am from the Caribbean and have been looking for it ever since.
Excellent videos. More aids to help differentiate fake from real would be a good, high-power loupe and a hardness meter. Most fake turquoise, Howlite, magnesite, etc. are from 3-4 on the hardness scale. Turquoise is around 5-6. Every little bit helps.
So helpful. I can not get enough form the Navajos. You did an exceptional job of describing Turquoise in such a limited time. Thank you for sharing all your knowledge. Lynnwood, WA Kris
Thank you for posting this very informative and we'll put together video, Turquoise has been my favorite stone since. I was a small boy .I have one ring and I would like to acquire a few more . Thanks again .

I love the cool color of turquoise but don't like so many available unnatural fake ones that are brittle and burnable. It's surprising that about 90% sold are unnatural.
My favorite turquoise is teal or a stone with a gradient of electric blues with some sea foam green. I also love red and black matrix but I also think royston turquoise with the orange matrix looks like a photo of the earth and that’s stunning! Bisbee turquoise is very glassy but I don’t like matrix much. Or pyrite matrix. Birds eye and spider web is my favorite because it’s got incredible personality
I enjoyed your video. I just purchased a squash blossom necklace online that was advertised as a Navajo Squash Blossom necklace however the beads are magnetic. Would a true Navajo necklace have beads that aren't silver? The squash blossoms are not magnetic but they are unlike any I have seen in pictures in that the tips of the blossoms are turned outward. Can you direct me in finding out? I live in FL so haven't found a local place to get it checked. Thanks.
I have pieces: earrings, ring, 2 necklaces and a conch belt (no leather) that I want to sell. Purchased by my Mother in late 50's in either Cheyenne, Wy or Colorado. I'm trying to get knowledgeable about what I have.
I’m watching this in 2021. Very interesting. Thank you for this video, very informative. I have loved turquoise since my teens, and I’m now in my 60’s. I will be checking your parents website for sure. Thank you.
very interesting video, i have visited scottsdale in Arizona many times and have bought a few nice pieces of turquoise jewellry, i have a kopopelli bracelet with some turquoise, a bangle with turquoise and some earrings and my favourite is my turquoise watch i love it. i have some jet earrings which are nice too. thankyou for sharing i live in England
I have inherited a beautiful bracelet from my Grandmother. A piece out of many that somehow survived a selloff. I am hoping that you could direct me to possibly identify the artist. I believe most of her pieces were acquired in New Mexico in the 1960-1970s. I have searched a few databases for the hallmark and have not found it yet. I appreciate any direction you can give.
Great video brother... turquoise is an amazing stone...I have a couple beautiful 10-20 gram stones that are unbelievable that I cut a few yrs back...they always put a smile on my face when I need it the most...
I love Lapis Lazuli (has Pyrite in it) and Malacite! My birthstone is Turquoise.
I've been to the Navajo Gift Store in Arizona. The gentleman that worked there was so kind. He gave me background on a piece I had purchased back in the 1970's (I was 16 when I bought my bracket and it has a stone about the size of a golf ball in diameter. It was a bracelet designed by a Navajo Artist that became famous in the Art and I bought it in Tennessee, but knew it was Arizona Turquoise).
He also helped me select a piece of Pottery, a gift for a friend whom happens to be Navajo and had moved from Nevada (she worked for/with me and had moved to Arkansas to one of our other lications, she was originally from right there in Arizona, the store is at the highway but on the edge of their reservation. Public is welcomed there.)
I selected a piece that was Traditional Pottery, he said the older ladies make it and most if the younger artist make a different style.
I just felt she was longing for her home and the environment of her culture., so I bought the original style.
It was a truly good experience, something far more than a stop and gift purchase. There is something that vibrates far higher in many of the Native Americans I've met and share time with.
There's also something that I noticed over time working with my friend Martina. We really shared several common beliefs, traditions, and foods that are common in both our cultures.

CHRISSY OLIVEIRA -- Agreed. I moved to New Mexico & have bought jewelry. Have wondered if it was worth the price since. This is so useful to know.
Loloma's work is very distinctive. Nice work.

Thank you for your informative and really interesting video
Awesome video, Great job. Lots of great information
I really enjoyed your video and learned a lot. Thank you for creating it.

Take it to some pow wows and dances and ask around.
