Darren Livingston
Darren Livingston has spent most of his life in Church Rock, New Mexico, where he currently lives with his family. This community is not only home to him but also to his father and grandfather, from whom he learned the art of silversmithing at the age of thirteen. After attending public high school and enjoying his education, Darren became serious about his craft and began earning a living through silversmithing.
A hallmark of Darren’s jewelry is the precision with which each piece is constructed and finished, a quality often described as "clean" workmanship. The stones are set evenly into tight, fine silver bezels, and there are no sharp edges or signs of careless craftsmanship. His creations reflect the dedication of an artist who takes no shortcuts, ensuring that every piece leaving his studio embodies a high standard of quality. From simple single-stone pendants to intricately designed multi-stone dragonfly necklaces, Darren's work showcases the finest traditions of Navajo silverwork and a deep sense of pride in his heritage.
Lone Mountain Turquoise - Nevada
Lone Mountain, located in Nevada, is one of the most esteemed turquoise mines in the Southwest, renowned for its exceptionally high-quality turquoise. Established in 1920 when Lee Hand filed the "Blue Jay Mining Lode" claim, it gained prominence following Bert Kopenhaver's discovery of beautiful spider web turquoise in 1927. The mine produces a stunning variety of turquoise, with colors ranging from vivid clear blue to dark blue, often featuring matrix patterns in golden, black, or spider web styles. Although safety concerns arose due to the mine's haphazard tunnels, it was converted into a small open-pit mine under Menless Winfield's management in the 1970s. More Info
