Navajo Jewelry

*Traditional Jewelry*

Jewelry to the Navajo's are a must . They come in different shapes and sizes, and just only some times, in a different color than the natural turquoise and the red coral coloring of the stones that are used to make jewelry. They are mainly made with silver. There are also differences in between the male and female jewelry as well. The men and women of The People also compete in both size and value of their jewelry. The example you see below is a complete set (female). 










 

There are many different kinds of bracelets that the Navajo People wear, The women of course prefer the fancy big looking ones while some others like them plain and simple too. As for the men they or we do not exactly call them Bracelets, we know them as bow guards. The reason for this is that they'd wear it as a protection while hunting so as not to let the bow and arrow burn that portion of their arm.
