Native American Jewelry & Turquoise
The Navaho believe turquoise is a piece of the sky which has fallen to earth.
The Apache think it combines the spirits of the sea and sky to help warriors and hunters aim accurately.
The Zuni beleve that turquoise protects them from demons, while the Aztecs reserved turquoise for the gods and was not to be worn by mere mortals.
Sterling Silver jewelry personifies the individualistic approach to style. It can be casual and comfortable and, at the same time, elegant and timeless. Silver’s pure white color is flattering to all skin tones. And reflects light better than any other metal, throwing a pleasant glow onto the wearer’s complexion.

Native American Jewelry
Native American tribes in New York (the Seneca, Iroquois, Cayuga and the Onondaga) began turning European Silver coins into Native American Jewelry at the beginning of the 17th century.
It is said that the western tribes were introduced to silver in the 1800's, when travelers asked that silver coins be used to make items of jewelry. The most popular Native American Jewelry today features Silver and Turquoise.
One of my favorite places to shop for Native American Jewelry is Bearlanders Trading Co. Merchandise is shipped with a "Spiritual Meaning" card and/or a "Certificate of authenticity".
