Beyond turquoise and coral, Native American jewelers draw upon a remarkable palette of secondary stones — Afghan lapis lazuli traded across 6,000 years of human commerce, spiny oyster shell graded from fiery orange to royal purple, gaspeite, sugilite, charoite, and other rare materials that expand the chromatic possibilities of indigenous jewelry to extraordinary effect.
The ocean has supplied Native American jewelers with some of their most culturally significant materials. Mediterranean red coral, harvested from depths of 30 to 300 meters in the Tyrrhenian and Adriatic seas, arrived in the Southwest through Spanish colonial trade routes. Spiny oyster shell from the Sea of Cortez has been traded northward for over a thousand years. Mother of pearl, abalone, and other marine shells complete a palette of organic materials whose cultural importance rivals turquoise itself.

Discover this exceptional Native American Bracelet, meticulously crafted in Sterling Silver. This remarkable piece showcases genuine Lapis Lazuli, beautifully complemented by Gaspeite and Spiny Oyster. The Lapis Lazuli featured in this piece carries a rich heritage — Mined primarily in the mountains of Afghanistan for over 6,000 years, this deep blue stone flecked with golden pyrite has been prized by cultures worldwide. Its celestial appearance represents wisdom and truth. Complementing the design, the Gaspeite adds its own story — Originally discovered in the Gaspé Peninsula of Quebec, Canada, this apple-green stone is now primarily mined in Western Australia. Its bright, fresh color has made it popular in contemporary Native American jewelry. Rounding out this composition, the Spiny Oyster brings additional character — Harvested from the warm waters of the Sea of Cortez off Baja California, Mexico. The shell ranges from deep red-orange to purple and has been traded into the Southwest for over a thousand years. Available in size Link. This piece bears the signature of artist O.P, a mark of authenticity and personal craftsmanship. Every piece at Humiovi is one-of-a-kind — once sold, it can never be replicated. Ships from our gallery in Sedona, Arizona.

Coral & spiny oyster

Sterling silver
Buff with a soft polishing cloth — leaving intentional oxidation intact — and store airtight to slow tarnish.
Last on, first off
Put your piece on after fragrance, lotion, and hairspray — and take it off before water, sleep, and sport.
Store with care
Keep each piece in its own soft pouch, away from direct sun and damp, so softer stones never meet harder ones.
