Yellowhorse

Families have been known to bond in many different ways. For the Yellowhorse family, fine jewelry design is the common denominator. The influences of the Navajo culture are readily apparent in this beautiful, wearable art, which evolved out of generations of artistic talent.

Artie Yellowhorse resides in Corrales, New Mexico. She has two daughters and six grandchildren. Daughters, Desiree and Lei Lana are involved in the creation and design of jewelry with their mother.

Desiree has become an accomplished jewelry designer and is well known for her exquisite, one of a kind, "Tahy" necklaces, named in honor of her grandmother, Anna Tahy.

Lei Lana specializes in making handmade silver beads and also works with Artie marketing jewelry and in public relations.

Artie hopes that the Yellowhorse designs of today live on to inspire the young artists of tomorrow....

The traditions continue...the Navajo beauty way, simplicity of the design of elegant jewelry.
