Vol.14からの続き 緊張したまま車を運転して、彼の家に着きました。 工房に案内され、遂にあのハワードネルソンの ジュエリーが作られている場所に足を踏み入れました。 小さいスペースですが、道具、材料がきちんと 並べられていて、彼のジュエリー���様、整然としていました。

※写真は最近のものです。 最初は写真を撮る余裕はありませんでした。

奥さんのミリーから、取引の条件を一方的に言われ、 そのきつい話ぶりにおののいた事を憶えています。 今では冗談を言い合えるほどフレンドリーに話して ますが、当時はその後の事が不安になるほどの 態度でした。 後々なぜこんな態度だったのかが判りますが、 これは、またの機会にお話しします。

一方ハワードは今と変わらない落ち着いた態度で、 必死になっている私の話に耳を傾けてくれました。 この時はアップアップしながら、サンバーストの ペンダントを5点オーダーしました。 オールシルバーの定番デザインでしたが、 私の知る限り、当時出回っていなかった 3.7cm x 2.4cm の小さすぎず、大きすぎない ペンダントだっと記憶しています。 この大きさが後々、当店の定番になりました。

その後何を話したか憶えていませんが、半ば放心状態で ハワードの家を出て、その日のホテルに向かいました。 ホテルの部屋に入って、落ち着くと嬉しさが こみ上げてきて、終始ニヤニヤしていた事だけは はっきりと記憶しています…。 以上が私がハワードと出会った経緯です。 その後様々な事があり、お互いの環境が変わっても、 仕事の関係と友人関係は今日まで続いています。 先日久々にフェイスタイムでハワードとミリーの 顔を見ながら話しをしました。 1万キロ近く離れているのに、お互いの顔を 見ながら話しができるなんて、15年前には 考えられなかった事です。 テクノロジー万歳ですね。

Vol.16に続��…？

Native American Jewelry: A Fleeting History

American jewelry is renowned worldwide for its versatile style and diverse design. Designed by original artisans for many thousands of years, the jewelry of the Native Americans is affected by the land, the spiritual ideas, the legends, and the cultures of each individual nation, from the American of the Southwest to the Northeast. These jewelry pieces have been designed since the earliest times of the Inca, Aztecs, Maya, and Anasazi. 

It is an ancient art form

This native jewelry dates back at least as far as 10,000 BC. The Paleo-Indians, who were the original peoples to enter and reside in the Americas, utilized shells, rocks, antlers, bones, porcupine feathers, and similar elements to create wearable art. The tribes over the North American continent began to use whatever organic elements were available to them to design accessories. Pendants were ornately created from fish and animal bones, coral, shells. Besides, stones were shaped to create beads to adorn clothing or to make necklaces. Later on, the creation of jewelry became more complicated. Different elements like animal teeth, turquoise, copper, semi-precious stones, carved wood, silver, animal claws, pearls, and abalone were used as well.

Function of jewelry

The property of the innate peoples of the Americas traditionally had to be portable. The jewelry was not just for decoration and embellishment. It was as much a wearable bank for the owner. It also represented rank and social class within a tribe. Traditionally, Native Americans used jewelry to flaunt their rank, their history, and their identity. Jewelry was used to communicate traditions between the generations. Jewelry also had an essential role in trade between tribes, as styles and patterns varied between the various nations.

Navajo jewelry

For instance, the Navajo people worked mainly with turquoise and silver, stamping crescent-shaped naja necklaces and fixing them with bright turquoise stones. These pieces were recognized symbols of power and were worn by prominent members of the tribe. Concha jewelry was also trendy. This form of art could be observed on everything from necklaces to belts and hair accessories. You can have this type of jewelry from famous native American jewelry artists.

Zuni Jewelry

At the end of the 1800s, the Zuni people started making jewelry of their own with a center on lapidary work. Zuni lapidarist was amazingly skilled at setting and decorating stones into metal. They created an opportunity for Zuni and Navajo artists to work together to design versatile jewelry. Sometimes, a Navajo silversmith would form the detailed silver piece; then, the Zuni lapidarist would adorn it with gorgeous stones.

Basically, the jewelry made by Native American people was designed only for members of the tribe, but as the twentieth century advanced and silversmiths’ talents grew, more and more jewelry was sold to traders and peoples outside the tribe.

When you observe a piece of Native American jewelry, the stamped metal, stones, and the method used to make it all have a deep meaning, a connection to history.

いつもご覧いただき、ありがとうございます。 アーカイブを開くと、全ての記事が一覧で表示されます。

本編に入る前にお知らせです。 久しぶりにハワードネルソンのジュエリーのカスタムオーダーを 20%オフに致します。 更に、消費税分10%は当店で負担いたします。 詳細はお問い合わせ下さい。

ここから本編です。 お客様からハワード ネルソンとどうやって知り合ったか という事をよく聞かれます。 今日は私がハワードと出会った経緯を思い出しながら ���いてみます。

私が彼に初めて会ったのは、かれこれ15年程前だったと 記憶しています。 当時私は、買い付けのためアメリカにおりました。 買い付けの合間に普段は立ち寄らないトレーディングポストに 何気なく入って、ジュエリーを見ていると、 ケースの中にひときわ目をひくリングがありました。 既に有名なアーティストである彼の存在とその美しい ジュエリーについてはある程度知っていましたので、 ハワードが作ったリングだという事はすぐにわかりました。

そのリングを見ていると、店員の女性が 「ハワードネルソン好きなの？」と声をかけて きました。 「うん、綺麗なジュエリーを作るよね」と 返事をすると、思いがけない事を尋ねてきました。 店員「彼に会いたい？」 私「？」「もちろん会いたい…」 店員「電話して呼ぶ？」 私「この人は何を言ってるんだ？」(心の声） 「えっ？」（実際の答え） 店員「彼はすぐ近くに住んでるのよ。電話すれば来てくれる。」 私「マジ、マジ、早く電話して呼んでくれー」（心の声） 「そうなんだ。じゃあ電話してくれる？」（実際の答え） こんなやり取りがあって、彼女はハワードに 電話してくれました。 店員「10分くらいで来るって言ってる」 私「うわぁ、ホントに来る。どうしよう。」（心の声） 「OK、ありがとう」（実際の答え） 10分後、彼と彼の奥さんが店に入ってきました。 緊張し過ぎて、この数分��何を話したか、 殆ど憶えていませんが、ジュエリーをオーダーしたいのか？ と聞かれた事は憶えています。 その後、奥さんは自分の車、ハワードは私の車に同乗して 彼の家に向かいました。 この時、私の緊張はマックスで、車中の事は記憶が全くありません。

Vol.15に続く…

Explore and Buy Men's and Women wearing Accessories

We notice fashionable women and men because their garments are constantly accented with beautiful accessories, not simply because they look fantastic. A fashion accessory is a supplementary item to a user's clothes typically used to finish a garment and complete the user's appearance. The details can frequently reveal a lot about a person's style.

Colors have long been regarded as a valuable natural gift by the Navajo people, and specific colors have symbolic cultural implications. However, it’s crucial to remember that the context in which the color is utilized is vital because a single color can be employed for various purposes.

WHY ARE ACCESSORIES IMPORTANT?

In your ensemble, both accessories and garments are equally vital, working together to create a harmony that defines your style and identity.

Accessories emphasize your style, taste, and preferences.

Accessories are just as vital as clothes, and they give you a whole new way to express yourself. You may build a fluent style wave from head to toe with accessories.

Accessories with a significant visual impact can also make a powerful style statement. You can have a lot of outfits, but the accessories will make the difference.

IS IT TRUE ACCESSORIES ARE CRUCIAL IN BOTH WOMEN’S & MEN’S FASHION?

Yes, they are ideal fashion accessories for both women and men. If you have plain black clothing, add some native American jewelry to liven it up. It just changes your appearance and provides you with a new wardrobe.

It's all about the accessories. In your eyes, accessories can create a distinct universe. You can appear like a million dollars while wearing the most basic clothing. All it takes is a little forethought. Fashion accessories can be used in the same way as Navajo fashion jewelry, or they can be utilized in other ways than regular jewelry. They can also be used as a unique way of highlighting fashion.

Everyone nowadays wears famous art face masks, and it is a great accessory. For diverse weather conditions and chances, you'll need to mix and match some outstanding styles and fabrics.

The essential accessory in the entire list is shoes. Men and women require distinct shoe styles to complement their clothing while dressing up for a business meeting, a formal dinner, or a relaxed day with friends. Native footwear artists design amazing shoes for both women & men.

The Bottom Line

Choosing the perfect dress is difficult enough, but most women & men would agree that deciding what jewelry to wear with it is much more difficult. Choosing among various styles, colors, and designs isn't easy, and we agree with you, women & men.

Our Navajo artists are experts in creating stunning accessories to complement your southwestern, classic, or bohemian style. Sterling silver, turquoise, coral, and other valuable gemstones are frequently used. We carry a large selection of Navajo Accessories.
