Continued on page 10 SAY HELLO TO THE “PURPOSE-DRIVEN SHOPPER” Everyone needs a purpose. According to a new study of 19,000 consumers in 28 countries, ages 18 to 73, many are willing to pay for it. Nearly one-third of the consumers polled said they would stop buying a brand that is inconsistent with their purpose, such as those associated with negative social or environmental impacts, or lack sustainability—in other words, products produced in ways that may damage long term natural resources to satisfy short term needs. But nearly two thirds also said they would be willing to pay up to 35% more for brands consistent with their purpose. What does this crucial insight mean to diamond and jewelry retailers?

  • 1 Navajo and Zuni Turquoise
    Navajo and Zuni Turquoise: A Squash Blossom Necklace Case Study By Lucy Gamble Native American jewelry has been admired as adornment and investigated as functional works of cultural significance since the earliest Spanish contact in the 1500s. The unique styles of Native American jewelry across the American Southwest distinguish the pieces as emblems of their region and culture. Although each piece of jewelry is distinct, there are many reoccurring design elements and symbols throughout generations and various tribes. One identifiable widely repeated element of Native American jewelry is the use of the naturally occurring stone turquoise. Turquoise is used in many different types of jewelry, but it is prominently featured in the squash blossom necklace. In my thesis, I use methods of material culture and symbolic anthropology to investigate the use of turquoise in the squash blossom necklace. My work focuses on a collection of squash blossom necklaces collected from donors between 1935 and 1985, and housed at the Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center, to examine design elements and themes amongst the necklaces. Investigating the issues of transforming cultural items to commodities, I analyze these objects as reflective of the culture from which they originate. The market for Native American jewelry complicates the cultural analysis of these objects. When a jeweler is creating a piece within a cultural context it can be examined as reflective of that particular culture, but when the piece is created to be sold there are complications. Placing a value on the necklace puts a price on the cultural value, which in turn has the consumer viewing culture as commodity.

  • Retailer's Guide to Buying Authentic Turquoise
    PAGE 36 A GUIDE TO WHAT’S TURQUOISE NEXT? PAGE 26 Te Industry Looks Ahead to 2021 EQUESTRIAN TRENDS TIPS FOR BETTER BRANDING NEW BOOT INNOVATIONS JANUARY 2021 THE SOURCE Te Ultimate Buying Guide for Western & English Resources RETAILER’S GUIDE TO BUYING We consult the experts on accurately identifying, evaluating, and preserving this cherished resource. By Annie Wiles 36 Western & English Today Turquoise I S T H E DEFINITION OF TIMELESS. Possibly the earliest stone known to man, it appears in our old sacred texts from across the world, in Egyptian mummy tombs, and in some Native American mythol- ogies. Long believed to have mystical properties and healing powers, turquoise is one of our most cherished natural resources. Now, it is a draining one. In the past few years, environmental protection laws restricting the mining of turquoise have caused huge increases in demand and prices. “Turquoise is only going to continue to become more rare and more valuable in our lifetime,” says Amanda Alexander, creative director of Peyote Bird Designs. “It’s really important to treasure the material available to us, to use it smartly, and not waste it.” As natural turquoise increasingly becomes limited to vintage pieces mined decades ago and extremely high-end items, and the industry relies more on selling stabilized turquoise, it can be difficult for consumers to know if what they are buying is the real deal, especially as price tags and tastes fluctuate so widely. Marty Colbaugh, owner of the Kingman Mine in Arizona, says tastes in turquoise are constantly shift- ing. Pure, veinless blue has waned in favor of heavily matrixed, more irregular stones.

  • Jewelry of the Navajo, Zuni, and Hopi a Thesis
    UNIVERSITY OF OKLAHOMA GRADUATE COLLEGE WAYS OF KNOWING: JEWELRY OF THE NAVAJO, ZUNI, AND HOPI A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE FACULTY In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS IN ART HISTORY By ROBERT MAC EUSTACE JONES Norman, Oklahoma 2020 WAYS OF KNOWING: JEWELRY OF THE NAVAJO, ZUNI, AND HOPI A THESIS APPROVED FOR THE SCHOOL OF VISUAL ARTS BY THE COMMITTEE CONSISTING OF Dr. Alison Fields, Chair Dr. Robert Bailey Dr. Amanda Cobb-Greetham © Copyright by Robert Mac Eustace Jones 2020 Year All Rights Reserved Abstract This research examines the introduction of Southwestern Native American jewelry as an art form in the Navajo, Zuni and Hopi cultures in conjunction with developing sociographic vari- ables, supporting cultural survivance while resisting European colonization. It examines hand- made pieces of jewelry made by members of Native American source communities, informed by their visual language and material culture, in the creation of flexible art objects that work to transmit knowledge, tradition and heritage. The primary focus of this research is to develop methods of artistic attribution utilizing social media sources as a direct link to the source com- munities. Important works containing different levels of knowledge will no longer be operational if they lose their connection with their source of activation. By using a relationship matrix linked to a piece of jewelry’s movement through time and space, becoming the responsibility of differ- ent stewards, it became possible to access its link to its artistic origin. First, by examining an artwork representing facets of the relationship between a Native American artist and their Tribal community, it is possible to access specific cultural information embedded in the work aside from cryptic knowledge meant only for specific cultural members.
