DESCRIPTION-This book provides an overview of the uses of turquoise in native arts of the Southwest, beginning with the earliest people who mined and processed the stone for use in jewelry, on decorative objects, and as a powerful element in ceremony.

Drawing from the collections of the Museum of Indian Arts & Culture in Santa Fe, this book presents 142 examples of 20th-century turquoise jewelry-bracelets, rings, earrings, and necklaces-demonstrating the finest materials and craftsmanship achieved by Navajo and Pueblo artisans. Also included are examples of ancestral pottery and historical photographs. inventory #41602.
