Artist/Tribe: Steve Arviso (Navajo)

Steve was born in 1963, in Gallup NM. He started making jewelry in 1987. Most of his designs come from his old friend and teacher Harry Morgan and his experiences of making fashion jewelry. His jewelry is always made with the high-grade turquoise and leaves the piece simple and beautiful.

Stone: Apache Blue Turquoise

Apache Blue Turquoise mine, also known as Turkey Track, is a small mine located in the Candelaria hills of Nevada. Mined by the Ottesons, most of the Apache Blue Turquoise being extracted is an absolutely beautiful blue stone with a gorgeous black web matrix, as well as brown to brown/orange matrix.
