Product Description

Natural Red Mountain turquoise and coral necklace, by Hopi artist, Don Supplee.  The lovely 21″ necklace is enhanced with a reversible inlaid 18kt gold piece and 18kt gold spacers throughout.  It is finished with handmade 18kt gold chain and findings.  The Red Mountain turquoise and natural coral are hand-cut and carved by the artist.

Don Supplee was born in Ganado and grew up in Flagstaff, Arizona near the Hopi reservation. The son of two teachers, he was encouraged to pursue his dreams. Observing the jewelry making of his older brother Charles Supplee, an acclaimed silversmith, Don became fascinated by the intricate creative process. Utilizing metal fabrication, inlaying, and the ancient method of tufa-casting, the  artist quickly began developing his own style. An exceptional craftsman with a natural eye for design, Don creates exquisite jewelry in both silver and gold, enhanced by diamonds and other precious stones as well as traditional turquoise. “I credit my love of nature and appreciation of the Hopi culture as primary sources of inspiration,” he says.
