Ned Nez Navajo Jewelry

Explore handcrafted jewelry by Ned Nez, an award-winning Diné (Navajo) silversmith admired for his exceptional stones, substantial sterling silverwork, and distinctive balance of traditional and contemporary Southwestern design.

Nez is especially known for allowing remarkable turquoise to command the design. His pieces pair carefully selected stones with strong, beautifully proportioned silver settings that feel both timeless and highly collectible.

His work has received recognition at respected Southwestern art events, including the Heard Museum Guild Indian Fair & Market, the Gallup Inter-Tribal Indian Ceremonial, and Santa Fe Indian Market. Authentic pieces are commonly identified by his “N. NEZ” hallmark.

Lifted Realm selects Ned Nez jewelry for its verified artist attribution, stone quality, craftsmanship, and collector value. Individual listings document the turquoise origin, dimensions, weight, materials, and hallmark whenever known. Because each piece is individually made, availability is limited and many designs cannot be replaced once sold.
