Allen Aragon #122505

$365.00

Every necklace I ever receive from Allen is amazing in terms of the skills needed to create such a masterful piece of jewelry. This new necklace is no exception. This new piece is a handmade sterling silver necklace with an incredibly detailed pendant – hand stamped and painted clays. It is kiln fired with underglaze, and then fired and embedded onto the silver. The detailed painting is extraordinary. Using Native symbols, this is a stunning creation. This pendant portrays a thunder cloud, rain, wind, and thunder. The silverwork around the painted clays is also elaborate with spiral circles of silver acting as a border. The added Nevada turquoise on the top of the pendant is stunning. It is meant to be worn as a choker.

The pendant itself is 1 ¼” high by 1” wide
The sterling silver chain is 16” long

Navajo

We are so pleased to exhibit new work by Navajo artist, Allen Aragon.
Born in Ganado, Arizona, Allen was raised on a ranch near Chaco Canyon. He would go each month to weaving auction with his mother, an accomplished weaver. Surrounded by art, he became fascinated with the pottery that the women were bringing to sell. Allen has created a remarkable art form. To create this unique jewelry, Allen paints intricate abstract and animal images on pieces of pottery. He then fires them and sets each one in sterling silver to create beautiful pendants, earrings, rings, bolo ties and concho belts. Each piece of jewelry is truly one of a kind. He has received many top awards at SWAIA Indian Market in Santa Fe, at the Heard Museum Indian Market in Phoenix, at the Tesoro Foundation Market in Denver and many more shows.
