Handcrafted Navajo‎ Sterling Silver Cuff by Aaron Toadlena

This exceptional Navajo cuff bracelet is a creation of Aaron Toadlena, a master silversmith known for his unwavering dedication to traditional craftsmanship and the spiritual connection he brings to his work. Aaron considers his artistry a blessing—one that has allowed him to support his entire family for many years through the creation of fine, authentic Navajo jewelry. Aaron never begins a piece until his mind, eyes, heart, and hands are fully aligned. This intentional, focused approach ensures that every bracelet he makes carries deep personal and cultural significance. He strictly adheres to the old ways—hand-hammering each piece rather than using molds or casting—honoring the legacy of his ancestors with every strike of the silver. His signature style is proudly "old school" Navajo, with no shortcuts taken in craftsmanship. The result is jewelry that feels alive with history and heart. Aaron’s work has been featured in Cowboys & Indians magazine, Oprah Magazine, and exhibited at prestigious venues including the St. Louis Art Museum and shows in Boston. He also apprenticed with the legendary Ray Tracey, further refining his craft. This bracelet is not only a stunning statement piece but also a highly collectible example of traditional Navajo silversmithing at its finest.
