Hello friends!  It sure has been a strange year.  We haven't been on the road since we last saw you, so Riverside CA has the distinction of being both the last and next show in our travels.  While we "saw" you on our Facebook Live events, nothing quite compares to seeing everyone in person. We are very much looking forward to this weekend!  Naturally with Covid the process will be a little changed,and we ask your patience with us as we do what is required to keep everyone safe.  Per state/city directives, masks are required.  We'll have plenty of hand sanitizer and have protocol in place to sanitize jewelry between handling, among other things.
Even though you were the last folks to see the inventory, be prepared to find it's not the same as last time!  We sold many items on our Facebook Live events and as a result the inventory was in need of a re-fill.  Eric went on several buying trips during the summer and last week so there will be plenty of fabulous never-seen items in our fully re-stocked inventory.  Additionally, we still have large collections Eric worked on over the summer and up to this week: cleaning, restoring ,etc.  Here are a few big-time names you'll recognize (very collectible and hard to find): Al Nez, Alvin Vandever, Na Na Ping, Sherian Honhongva (niece of Charles Loloma), Howard Nelson and Phil Poseyesva.  We're talking some very special rings and BOLOS here as well!  Other new inventory will be a few of Tamara's creations in Argentium silver, and new pendants by Alton bedonie featuring stones cut by Tamara.  For more on this and other great items, check out our full newsletter here. 

Carvings, Pottery, Rugs, Sandpaintings and More

We have some more of the smaller Navajo weavings which are great for wall hangings and table tops, including a couple of rare, round rugs.  There is a great selection of the smaller sand paintings and sand painting boxes (which make lovely and unique gifts!).  All of our sand paintings are completely handmade, matted, and framed by Navajo artists.

Our fabulous inventory of high-quality Mata Ortiz pottery is sure to dazzle!  Many of these pieces have complex, fine-line detail artwork and are hand-coiled.  The price for this quality of work is incredible.   We have a great pair Martha Appleleaf and Carmelita Dunlap, black on black feather pattern pots as well as several much sought-after pots from Bob Lansing, including one in a large size.  Some of our fabulous acquisitions from private collections include three Maria Martinez pots as well as pieces by Phyllis and Marlene Hemlock.  This collection also contains several great miniature pots and a miniature storyteller. Whichever piece of pottery is your favorite, the warm colors of Southwest art provide a distinct feel to any home.

Our large kachina collection continues to dazzle with an inventory that includes work from award winning artists such as Laurence Dallas, Keith Torres, Raymond Chee, Marlin Pinto and Sterling McRae.   

We also have a large selection of Zuni animal fetishes on hand, including a HUGE lot of older, unique pieces from a private collection we obtained.  Many of these carvings are by well known, award winning artists and are crafted from an assortment of stones and organic material.  Marvin Toya, from the Jemez Pueblo carved several mid-size pieces that measure in the six to eight-inch range and some smaller inexpensive gift sized ones, including eagles, owls, corn maidens and others.  Other not to miss pieces 

See you there!
