As a testament to the rich cultural influences of his people, this rare artist brings to life the true spirit of Native American jewelry arts. With a career over 35 years in the making, Aaron has become an accomplished silversmith, mastering the fine craft of stone inlay, as well as many other traditional Native American jewelry making techniques. He has received numerous awards at Gallup, New Mexico Ceremonial and his work is featured in museums and galleries around the world.

A resident of the Navajo reservation, Aaron now celebrates his success and growing recognition for his artistry, with a new line of “Vintage Revisited” traditional Native American jewelry designs of the 1920’s, 30’s and 40’s. “Creation” is perhaps the single word which best describes the talent which has been harnessed by Aaron Toadlena. He and his wife of over 35 years reside with their family, within the four sacred mountains of his people, the Dine, in the southwest highlands ofof Arizona.

All of the fine jewelry made by Aaron has been stamped with a handprint, which is symbolic of the Creators Five Finger clan. The creation of his jewelry evolves when his mind, heart, eyes and hands work in concert. The melody of the silver art work if from the well of his soul.
