ERICKA NICOLAS BEGAY's silver jewelry can be matched with feminine clothes even though it is Indian jewelry. With a design that exquisitely combines the brand's unique charm and the tradition of Indian jewelry, you can match it with casual or feminine clothes, or layer it with your own accessories.
When I think of Indian jewelry, I get the impression that it has a rustic feel that is especially popular among men, and when I meet a woman who wears it, I admire her sense of style.
However, unlike jewelry that is mass-produced, Indian jewelry is handmade and difficult to imitate, like buying trendy items.
Silver has been out of the picture for a while, but ERICKA NICOLAS BEGAY has breathed new life into traditional Indian jewelry styles, and I was drawn to its understated, understated design that would go well with any outfit. It was Navajo silver.
Navajo Nation and Navajo Pearl
The Navajo Native American tribe is a tribe located around New Mexico, Arizona, and Utah, and has a history dating back to the 1500s. Navajo pearls are traditionally made shiny silver pearls that originate from Navajo silversmithing. Like many ethnic jewelry, it was worn as a talisman and symbolized life, friendship, and wishes, and the Navajo people originally made beaded items from stone, wood, and shell materials that were passed down from generation to generation. However, ever since silver and copper were brought to Japan by Europeans, they have continued to be made using sturdy silver materials.
Unlike common ball chain necklaces, these silver parts with a pearl-like luster are made of high-quality 925 silver, which is a high-quality material that rivals gold and platinum such as K18. The shine of highly pure silver is elegant and stands out from the rugged and masculine image of Indian jewelry. Yet, these Navajo pearls are not too flashy and have an all-handmade texture.
Focusing on tradition and ease of use
Tracing the history of Indian jewelry, it can be traced back to the 18th century, when it began with silverwork made by the Navajo people. After the discovery of the Americas, the Navajo people primarily made textiles, but they also made jewelry inspired by the turquoise worn by the Spanish and Mexicans. Indian jewelry making, which began as a way to earn a living, eventually evolved into ornaments for ceremonies and ceremonies, and the technique spread to various surrounding tribes.
ERICKA NICOLAS BEGAY inherits this historical manufacturing tradition and begins by melting silver materials. In recent years, it has been said that many Indian jewelry is made by processing plates and parts, but ERICKA NICOLAS BEGAY starts by making the materials, with the idea of preserving traditional manufacturing methods and providing genuine products.
In addition, the Navajo Old Style design is created using stamp work, in which patterns are carved by hand using a chisel. It is a complicated and time-consuming process that involves pouring silver into a mold, carving it, and then fitting it with brass. In addition, although silver is generally considered to be heavy and stiff, Navajo pearls first create hemispheres by forming melted silver into plate shapes. By welding the two hemispheres together, the inside of the pearl becomes hollow, making it lightweight and easy to wear.
