About the artist
Jennifer Curtis
Jennifer Curtis was born in Keams Canyon on the Navajo Reservation. She is the daughter of legendary silversmith Thomas Curtis. Like her father, Jennifer is known for her heavy stamping technique. Nothing used in her jewelry is commercially made. All the materials, silver and stones, come from Mother Earth.
Jennifer works in very heavy gauge silver with the help of her husband Ray Skeets. Jennifer constructs every part of her jewelry herself. She uses her father's stamp and die sets. This is important because they are Thomas's original designs (not commercially bought).When you buy Curtis jewelry it is a unique creation not mass produced.
She is a respected Navajo female silversmith working in a traditional style. Known for her exquisite stamp and file designs, Jennifer’s work is the perfect blend of tradition and innovation.
Jennifer’s hallmark is simply “Jennifer” in script.
