Growing up in Prescott, Arizona, Jesse was surrounded by Native American art and jewelry. Jesse's mom, with a trained eye, collected early Navajo and Hopi silver and turquoise work. As a child, Jesse and his brother wore their grandpa's old bolo ties. When Jesse graduated high school he was given his first silver bracelet. A bracelet he wore everyday through his archaeology career. Turquoise and silver jewelry have always been a part of his life.
Now, Jesse travels to the remote corners of Nevada to source his turquoise directly from his claims and those who have spent generations mining the rare stone. From the earth he sculpts the stones and places each one with intent into his one of kind coin silver ingot jewelry. With stones as unique as each of us and silver work designed to last for generations each piece carries a story as rich as the wild places of the American Southwest.
Find your stone, find your jewelry, and find your adventure.
Like the first smiths and plateros of the Southwest, I create one of a kind tufa cast ingot, hand wrought, coin silver jewelry.
Sourcing the highest quality natural turquoise led me to the remote hills of Nevada. I actively mine and cut my turquoise from the Cheyenne, Misty Blue, Robbins Nest, and Pilot Peak turquoise mines.
