About Zuni Jewelry

Just as the Navajo did not do silverwork as part of their culture, the Zuni did not make things out of silver until the late 1800's.

In fact, the Zuni were introduced to silverwork by the Navajo people.

When you shop for Native American jewelry, you will soon be able to recognize Zuni work by its style and quality of craftsmanship.
