Ned Nez – Navajo
Ned, half brother to Leonard Nez, continues the famed Nez brothers’ innovation in silver and gold- smithing. Ned has spent his life as a Navajo statesman and renowned medicine man. He has traveled extensively lecturing and sharing his unique insights on the culture of the Navajo Nation. He sets the standard in creating some of the most beautiful traditional and contemporary jewelry in the Southwest. Ned has one awards at the Herd Museum show, Gallup Ceremonial, and Santa Fe Indian Market. We have traded natural turquoise with Ned since the 1980s. His work is among the most collectible in Indian Country.
