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.

Zuni Pueblo, New Mexico has produced some of the most technically demanding stonework in the history of world jewelry. Needlepoint β the art of cutting and setting long, thin, pointed turquoise stones β and its companion technique petit point require lapidary precision measured in fractions of a millimeter, passed through families like the Dishta, Quam, and Leekya across multiple generations.
