Z Kenneth Bitsie - Navajo
Bracelet Link Inlay
Lapis Lazuli & Opal
Sterling Silver

Kenneth Bitsie, Navajo  

Kenneth is one of the long time members of the consortium of artists that comprises Stoneweaver. Unlike most inlay shops (Supersmith and Calvin Begay, as examples), the Stoneweaver work is handmade  not cast.

This is not a slam against either of them, I carry Supersmith but handmade requires a lot more work.

The quality control is very high and the "bang for the buck" is fabulous when taking into account the materials and work required.  There is a lot of attention to detail right down to the tiny pieces of lapis inserted into the ends of the closing toggle.

Repeatable Design:  Each piece is handmade, similar may be found at some time but it is best to look at this as one of a kind.  It will be the luck of the draw to find the same combination of materials in the same setting. (see below)
