Perhaps one of the most notable representations of Native American culture that’s been shared around the world can be found in their handcrafted jewelry. Of the many necklaces, bracelets, rings, and earrings available, the sterling silver turquoise jewelry made by the Native American tribes of the Southwest United States are among the most popular pieces across the world.

Sterling Silver Turquoise Jewelry in Native American Culture

The culture of the Southwest Native American Indian Pueblos is unique. Groups like the Zuni, Hopi, Navajo, and Acoma used local natural resources in the construction of their jewelry pieces. Using these regional items, they created pieces like the sterling silver turquoise ring, Sleeping Beauty turquoise necklace, and hand-stamped sterling silver earrings. They passed their silver-work and stone cutting skills down from generation to generation with each new artist adding their own personal touch to this cherished tradition.

Today, sterling silver turquoise jewelry including silver turquoise rings, pendants, earrings, etc. are popular throughout the world. Men and women from all walks of life have fallen in love with the beautiful colors, textures, and designs that are unique to the jewelry of the Southwestern Native American Indian tribes. These unparalleled jewelry pieces are more than accessories — they embody decades of Native American culture.
