Lapis, Coral, and Silver Necklace and Pendant by Navajo artist Abraham Begay

Silversmithing has been used by the Navajo tribe since the mid 1800s, with patterns and designs that distinguish the Navajo artistic style of inlaid stone jewelry from other silver jewelry. This art is still practiced today and many Navajo silver craftsmen create unique pieces to share with others of Navajo heritage and those who admire the culture and beautiful intricate jewelry. The coral, silver and lapis necklace pendant crafted by Navajo artist Abraham Begay illustrates the unique style and delicate artistry of Navajo silversmithing. Spectrum Arts Gallery LLC features this piece made with a silver pendant and lapis and coral beads, signed by the artist. Abraham Begay also designs custom pieces.
