Since the beginning, Silver Sun has been providing authentic, handmade Native American jewelry to the public by wholesaling to fine shops and galleries, museums, and Indian stores across the globe. Over the years, they have acquired knowledge about the precious “fallen skystone” turquoise, and understand the value, beauty, and spiritual significance it holds. Silver Sun’s in-house designers collaborate with several talented silversmiths to create both traditional and unique contemporary jewelry that features rare, natural turquoise as well as other semi-precious stones.

Silver Sun is a longtime member of the Indian Arts and Crafts Association, the only organization in the country that wholeheartedly promotes and protects authentic Native American handmade arts and crafts.
