Description

Product Description LEGENDARY KEEPSAKES FROM THE LAND OF ENCHANTMENT Celebrated jewelry designer Carolyn Pollack found her creative home decades ago in Albuquerque, New Mexico, where the American West brand was born. In creating the American West jewelry brand, Carolyn marries a modern aesthetic with traditional elements of Hopi and Navajo designs from Arizona and New Mexico.We celebrate that glorious gift of individuality in every piece of jewelry we hand craft. Drawing on the diversity of our multi-cultural heritage, we design and create artifacts that reflect our close connection to Mother Earth and the Southwest and that respect and honor the spark of the free-spirited, emboldened women who wear them. EXPLORE CLASSICS Each piece in our Classics collection is an homage to the ancient art form of sterling silver, and the unique marriage of Native American and Spanish design that emerged centuries ago, right here in the Southwest. The use of coral, turquoise and mother of pearl has been in vogue since the first trade routes connected the Pacific coast to the desert areas that are now part of Arizona, New Mexico, Texas and Mexico. The crescent-shaped naja centerpieces of our squash blossom necklaces were introduced hundreds of years ago by the Spanish, as part of bridal ensembles and were soon adopted into fashion by Navajo silversmiths. Delicate silver feather and leaf designs are reminiscent of post-war technologies that made intricate designs like these more widely available.
