    Thanks for your business!
    Tucson Indian Jewelry

For your piece of mind:

Most noteworthy, we make every effort to comply with “The Indian Arts and Crafts Act of 1990 (P.L. 101-644).”

On the whole, most older “Native American Indian Made” jewelry is not signed in any manner. Tribal members were discouraged from highlighting themselves over the other tribal members.

Above all, our business is locally owned and operated by us, a married couple. We have been selling Indian jewelry through our brick and mortar stores in Tucson, Arizona since 1990. (In our current building since 1993). We thank you for your business and hope you find our policies to be reasonable and make sense!
