Internationally known Navajo jewelry designer Tommy Jackson, from Chinle, Arizona, learned the art of silversmithing from his parents, Martha and Gene Jackson. He is known for merging traditional Navajo designs with modern-day aesthetics in his dynamic jewelry. Spiny Oyster is a vibrant spondylous shell that comes exclusively from the Gulf of California. This striated beauty comes in a range of colors from red to orange to purple. These stunning mollusks are harvested by hand, which is both grueling and risky.
