For over 100 years Native American jewelry has been one of the most popular ways for one to celebrate quality handmade art! The reason it is so popular is because it is made by hand with precious materials and stones. Like almost every type of art, the most valuable pieces are vintage pieces. This is because vintage pieces are quite rare and the combination of age/ REAL patina make them highly desirable. Please be cautious of replica jewelry or even mass produced authentic jewelry as it tends to not increase in value over time.
At Nativo Arts (online store), you can be assured that what you are buying is not only authentic, but a desirable and collectible piece of Native American jewelry. Nativo Arts have the largest selection of the most rare Native American jewelry pieces in the world, for the best price.
Stellar Image Media had the honor of interviewing the Nativo Art’s Owner Drew Smith, who operates the store from Albuquerque, New Mexico.
Drew, you have a powerful story. Why don’t you give us some details about you and introduce us to your story. How did you get to where you are today?
The outreach of Native American culture and art has always been important to us. This outreach is crucial to the preservation of Native American arts and culture. Such an outreach can be achieved through means of art and more particularly, Native American jewelry.
Native American jewelry is such a unique style of jewelry that has been around for over 100 years. What makes it so unique is that it is hand made by Native American artists with precious and semi precious stones/materials. But you also have to be careful with all of the replica and fake jewelry out there. We created a place where customers can come and know what they are buying is authentic.
I’m sure your success has not come easily. What challenges have you had to overcome along the way?
Native American jewelry is incredibly popular but because it is made by hand it is getting harder to find authentic pieces. We have built up a network for over a decade that allows us to find and obtain the best pieces for the best prices
Let’s talk about the work you do. What makes Nativo Arts unique?
We focus on quality and authenticity. We are one of the only establishments that allow the customer to make offers on items.
What’s your best piece of advice for readers who desire to find success in their life?
Life is short and precious. It is important to celebrate life and what better way than jewelry that helps Native American artists and families. To wear jewelry that is made by hand creates a beautiful sense of pride in human achievement.
Speaking of success, what does the word mean to you?
Success to us is to contribute to the world in the best way we know how. To share this art and culture with the world the means by which we get that done. To be there for others and offer the best quality we can is everything to us.
What’s next for you, and Nativo Arts?
