RETHEMA RAVISHES US ALL WITH HER RADIANT CRAFTSMANSHIP

Navajo jewelry artisan, Rethema Tsosie, still resides on the Navajo reservation at the Arizona/New Mexico border. She continues to create contemporary southwestern jewelry in the traditional styles that have been passed down to her through generations. This hand-crafted creation is a lovely four-strand necklace of bold blue lapis beads with turquoise nuggets sprinkled throughout. Double D Ranch is honored to be able to bring Rethema’s work to y’all.
