As available, we carry North American Indian dreamcatchers, jewelry, pottery, ceramics, sand paintings, tomahawks, bows and arrows. We usually buy directly from a close family member of the artisan who created the work; these relatives do the leg work of wholesaling for the artist, so they can do what they do best-create art!
Here are the Native American artisans we represent on a regular basis:
Aaron Calabaza of the Pueblo Indians, who comes from a family of Santo Domingo Pueblo jewelers. Each piece of his jewelry is hand-crafted from semi-precious stones, shells and beads that he buys direct from wholesale vendors to his Pueblo. He cuts the pieces and puts the designs together with the help of his children's mother Victoria, who also travels to a select number of galleries to sell his work. Celeste hand picks pieces she thinks will appeal to the clientele of Celestial Creations. Now you can buy some of these pieces through our online shopping cart. Although Aaron crafts some bracelets and ankle bracelets, his forte is necklaces and earrings. Stones he uses include gaspeite, zujilite, lapis lazuli, pink lipshell, onyx, hematite, serpentine, and of course turquoise. What many people don't realize is that not only does turquoise come in a remarkable variety of blues and greens, but there is also white lace turquoise and buffalo turquoise, too. Calabaza also uses mother of pearl (abalone) and various types of shells and puka.
The Bear Clan of the Navajo Tribe near Casa Mero Lake reservation through Jacqueline Phillips and her husband J P Morgan (yes, really). Along with their three daughters Elyssa, Marinda and Eugenia, they craft dreamcatchers, drums, talking sticks, and wheel of protection from deer and elk they have used for food. The hide, bone and sinew is used to hand-wrapped and weave every item we buy from them. Their extended family makes Tomahawks and bows and arrows.
We occasionally are visited by other North American Indians with quality art and craft created by themselves or a close family relative that they wish to wholesale. We may or may not put them for sale in our online store. Please feel free to email about any Native American made items you are interested in. We are always happy to take digital photos of what we have on hand and email them to you with prices!
