Navajo Artisan C. [Charles] M.[Mike] Yazzie
He did not sign his early work as he does today.. Known as "One of the best Silversmiths of that Era" (ARIZONA HIGHWAYS) He not only worked with Turquoise he did exceptional Inlay work which was then very unusual for a Navajo Silversmith as Zuni's primarily used this technique.. I would say his Inlay Work was as good as the Great Zuni Silversmiths and Lapidarist of his day. From Navajo HEAVY TURQUOISE ROW BRACELET BY ALBERT JAKEEARLY HIGHLY COLLECTIBLE "C.M.
