It was not until the 1850s that Americans began to acquire the necessary skills to design the jewelry of precious metals and gemstones. Before that, they often serve as copper and brass wire fashion jewelry and coins used as buttons. A man Saan Atsidi called learned the art of forging in Arizona to Fort Defiance.

What are Native American jewelers can trace their jewelry techniques. In the 1860s the Navajo people were interned at Bosque Redondo for four years, but when they returned to the confusion, they began to use new technologies Saan had learned that in the development of silver jewelry.
