Portfolio Example & Artist Statement
Burrell Jones

My jewelry is created through tufa and sand casting methods, techniques passed down by generations of Diné (Navajo) silversmiths. Working with tufa stone, I carve each design by hand, embracing the stone’s natural texture to shape molten silver into unique forms. Each piece reflects the land, water, and resilience of my people, carrying the imprint of both tradition and innovation. Through my work, I seek grounding with harmony, balance, and healing.
