I bought the picutured pottery bolo, the first I have ever encountered, in the gymnasium hallway at the Crownpoint Rug Auction last week. Marilyn Ray, one of the famed five sister potters of Acoma, made the eye catching clay gem. Price $59.

Introduction
I began this blog in order to share insights and adventures in buying Native American art creations.
For a fun and informative look at traditional Navajo jewelry see the 1925 silent film THE VANISHING AMERICAN based on one of Zane Grey's Western sagas. You can rent from Netflix or buy via Amazon.com. It is also available for online downloading.
