Native American jewelry
More art from the James Museum of Western Art
St Petersburg, FL
There is a small collection of beautiful jewelry. Having seen a huge museum collection last fall in Santa Fe at the Wheelwright Museum, I was a bit disappointed. But these are beautiful samples of a great genre. I also imagine Mrs. Thomas James has her favorites to wear still, and doesn't display those here!
Buckle above, bolo below!

ReplyDeleteI'm not sure where the Natives in the west got coral. Nowadays, they can trade with anybody.
