Native Americans tell their stories through art
At the turn of the 19th century the Boy Scouts of America were asked to celebrate “First Americans” at the request of Dr. Arthur C. Parker, Seneca tribe. The National Native American Heritage Month of November was adopted in 1990. It has been a month of many celebrations across the American landscape. Honoring the traditional cultures and contributions of Native Americans. American West Jewelry by Carolyn Pollack embraces the legendary lore of centuries-old Native American, Hispanic and Western pioneer heritage!
Designs to direct your path and way of life
Discover the lore of the sacred Arrowhead, giving direction to your life. We honor this legend with the design by Fritz Casuse, Navajo. The hammered Sterling and gems of red Jasper and blue Lapis make this pendant enhancer perfect for your Fall & Winter wardrobe! The arrowhead is an artifact often found in The Land of Enchantment. The work of art in an arrowhead tells the story of the American Indian that created it. 🏹
