Sammie Kescoli Begay – Navajo
Sammie Kescoli Begay produces some of the most beautiful traditional and deeply stamped sterling silver jewelry to be found in Indian Country. Using heavy gauge ingot silver combined with gem grade turquoise, often supplied by us, his pieces are unusual in both quality and style. Sammie is primarily a minister to his growing congregation on the Navajo reservation. He approaches each piece he creates with the eye of a true perfectionist.
