Andy Cadman turquoise and silver concho belt

This sterling silver concho belt was handcrafted by Diné (Navajo) silversmith Andy Cadman. Vibrant turquoise stones are set in each concho (12 conchos in total), and along the buckle. Leather belt can be cut to best fit the wearer. Stamped "A Cadman" and "sterling" on underside of buckle.

Visit Room 15 (in person, or virtually ) to see how Dr. Barnes incorporated a concho belt into the North Wall ensemble.

Diné (Navajo) silversmith Andy Cadman was born in Gallup, New Mexico, in 1966. Cadman comes from a family of well-known silversmiths, and his work features stamped designs in sterling silver and skillfully set natural turquoise. We are proud to exhibit his works alongside the pieces from our collection that highlight the craft, ingenuity, and tradition of Diné (Navajo) jewelry-making.

Native American Jewelry

Native American Jewelry

On a tour of New Mexico in the winter of 1929-1930, Dr. Barnes acquired a large number of turquoise and silver jewelry pieces. These pieces are on display in the galleries alongside paintings and other objects. As with all his purchases, he chose pieces according to the principles of light, line, color, and form.

Our retail collection of Native American jewelry is from the southwest, where the same artistic traditions Dr. Barnes admired continue in jewelry making practices today. You can enjoy the beauty and grace of this timeless style with pieces made by contemporary designers working in long-held traditions.
