Illustrates the development of religious art in northern New Mexico over a period of 150 years through more than three hundred santos.
Profusely illustrated with stunning photographs of over 500 profile and figural spoons along with historical images, this book is the first to examine the production of silver spoons by Navajo artisans beginning in the 1880s and continuing to World War II. The silversmiths brought the highest level of skill and invention to functional teaspoons, servers, and sugar shells, sought after by travellers to the Southwest and traders. Many of the rare spoons are engraved with dates and names.
