The group of artists whose work is being show cased on this website is primarily from the Huerfano Chapter in northwestern New Mexico. ’Huerfano’ in Navajo, Dzil na’ oodilii – means: “water gushing up from a rock”.

 The Navajo people are a strong and proud people who are known world-wide for their skills as fine jewelry makers, weavers, and pottery makers. Navajo rugs, pots, and silver/turquoise jewelry can sell for thousands of dollars a piece.

There are few business opportunities on the Reservation, and these rural areas tend to be impoverished.   The Navajo people are highly creative and a large percentage of the adult population is artists. These crafts-people go to neighboring cities to sell their art to non-Navajo wholesalers at a fraction of what their art is really worth.

We hope that by selling directly to the public, and no middle-man, the local Navajo artist will benefit. Please know that with each purchase you make, you are helping support a local Navajo artist.

All the money from your purchases go to the crafts person and to support of this website.

Thank you for your support!
