A choker (18 inches) by Jack Tom set with amazingly deep red coral, $725,

Very stylish contemporary earrings by Jack and Mary Tom. The drop length is 2.25 inches and the silver dangles are just over 1 inch on a side. Set with natural turquoise from the Sleeping Beauty Mine in Arizona. $275.

Robert Sorrell sandcast this great 2.75 inch long lizard pin/pendant set with a piece of turquoise from the Pilot Mountain or Royston Mine in Nevada.   $300.   The pendant next to it is set with labradorite and a piece of Sleeping Beauty turquoise inset with a coral bead.   On reverse is a bear silohuette showing the back of the labradorite, a small turquoise and a lightning motif revealing a piece of spiny oyster shell.   $375.   As the light strikes it the stone beautifully refracts the light.  

Ernest Bilagoody has long been known for making fine boxes in a variety of shapes and sizes but it's not easy to get his work and so we are always happy when we have examples of his sterling skills (pun intended).  

The shorter box (left) is 2 3/8 inches in diamater and 3.25 inches high. $375. The taller box (right) is 2.5 inches in diamater and 4.25 inches high. $450.  

Robert Sorrell is one of the best and most imaginative siliversmiths around, and we are delighted that we will be getting new work from him every week or so for the next two months up to Santa Fe Indian Market.   These two sandcast snakes (tufa cast on one side and cuttlefish bone cast on the reverse) measure 3.5 by 2 inches.   The one at left is set with a green turquoise from the Carico Lake Mine in Nevada.   $750 (SOLD) .   The one at right is set with a piece of turquoise from the Bisbee Mine and an inlaid tail.   On the reverse the Bisbee turquoise has been backed with turquoise from the Sleeping Beauty Mine in Arizona.   $875.

This frog was also cast with tufa and cuttlefish bone by Robert Sorrell to achieve the varying textures.   The reverse is set with natural turquoise from Nevada.   It measures 1.75 by 1.7 inches.   $220.

These Navajo cast pins are all by Arthur Williams Jr, a Navajo from the community of Tohajiile (formerly Canoncito - west of Albuquerque.)   The hummingbird is $16 while all the others are $18.   There is a nickel in the photo for scale.  

This older sandcast bracelet dates to the 1950s or 1960s.   It measure 6 inches with a 1 inch opening and is 2.25 inches across at the widest point.   $300.  

These two bracelets are by Samuel Greathouse LaFountain, a Navajo Chippewa jeweler working in Santa Fe.   Both are an inch wide and made for a small ladies' wrist.   $375 each.
