    I am awestruck. The skill, the heart, soul and the love that went into this piece is breathtaking.

    Native American people have a long, rich history in the Southwest. I grew up in Arizona in the 70s & 80s. I remember seeing them displaying their beautiful & intricately designed silver & turquoise jewelry for sale at the rest stops along the highways. It would always be laid out on lovely handwoven blankets, with kind people tending to their wares. I wish I'd taken more time to appreciate the incredible workmanship and skill on display back then. Except in the expensive boutiques in Scottsdale or online, sadly you just don't see it anymore.

    I bought one of your cuffs years back in Gallup, and it is a treasure. I'm wearing it right now! Thank you for sharing your talent in this video. God bless you, your work has blessed me!

    I've been watching a lot of silversmith videos and I realized in the middle of this that my job was just hanging open watching. Jaw dropping for sure. I am amazed and impressed. Thank you so much for sharing this. I feel like I just found the silversmiths' silversmith.

    I love your videos, no talking you let your actions speak for themself in this video. Its a beautiful buckle, I love Navajo art. My great grandmother was full blooded Cherokee very sadly I was very young when she passed. I only have a few pictures of her and I together but I think she would be proud of me to know just how much knowledge I have aquired of my anchesters English and Native American. I practice silversmithing every day whether I have a comission or not, even if I'm not making an item for sale I will pick out something that I am terrible at and do it over and over again. But thank you for you videos.

    So now Navajo makes it somehow better. If that wasn't in the title no one would give a crap. Just some random dude making a piece of trinket jewelry. Costume crap.
