  • Glittering World presents the story of Navajo jewelry through the lens of the gifted Yazzie family of Gallup, New Mexico-one of the most celebrated jewelry making families of our time. The silver, gold, and stone inlay work of Lee Yazzie and his younger brother, Raymond, has won every major award in the field. Their sister Mary Marie makes outstanding jewelry that combines fine bead- and stonework; silver beads are handmade by other sisters.
    Jewelry making has long been an important part of the lives of Southwest Native peoples. During the last 50 years, Native jewelers in the Southwest-Navajos in particular-have created a contemporary aesthetic that draws on traditional materials and reflects the persistence of cultural values such as beauty, centering, and balance.
    This film was produced by the National Museum of the American Indian Media group for the Glittering World exhibition.

    I could completely connect with getting your ideas down on paper so you can remember them. I think i have sketchbooks everywhere in my home, I have to draw the idea and make the lil notes of color and design what I am searching for with this project. It is so awesome to hear other artist have the same methods and I do and think alike. Very inspiring video.

    Thanks so very much! I got a fabulous squash blossom necklace from my in-laws for my fiftieth birthday and I wore it a lot when I was teaching. I’m now 71 and have fewer chances to wear it. I feel that I love mine as much as you love yours! Thanks for the advice on cleaning it! Could you please help me with the very best way to store it?

    Such a beautiful culture! It is so amazing how much thought goes into a piece of turquoise, so that the perfect piece of jewelry evolves. That is true art!

    Thank You this presentation is a wonderful thing, it expresses these beautiful peoples heart and soul that is their human side of their respect for all things and the beliefs they project in a positive loving caring way about what they do.. its hard to find people who put their very best foot forward on a self respect way of these creation speak of who they are, in an elegant classy way that for example the most educated harvard individual gets all that esucation then starts at the beginging if their carreer really knowing nothing about the career they endevor upon. I dont know what education these Navajo people have but the projection of a quality that many others fail to see ir appreciate everything on the planet the way these so beautiful people reflect this in a warm heart felt truth inside then exist.

    This is Indians talking just like whiteman. Answering the whiteman's questions. In english.
    This is Coyote's work.

      This is too harsh. This family is well spoken... and very fortunate in their talent. But this work is far from what was done in 1895. And made almost exclusively for the white patron with taste and money. They understand the white man's economy. I cannot begrudge them this. Maybe a little bit.

    Look at the video.. Mexican people!! My people are not lazy..They work at home to make jeweleries and to sell them for more money.. You could stay in your on country and make something to sell.Don't try to make your country look so poor.
