Navajo Artisan-TYLER BROWN-GORGEOUS-Dark Purple Spiny Oyster Cluster-Sterling Statement Cuff-For Hard to Find 5-3/4" Wrist!- 2.50" Width!
ABOUT THE ARTIST:
Only 32 years old & asked for by name, Tyler has made quite the name for himself in the Native American jewelry industry.. Regardless of the amount of artisans out there, Tyler's work stands apart from others, since he is producing some phenomenal looking cluster work in todays market..
As a teen, Tyler could not escape the art of making jewelry, since he happens to be the son of the late Navajo artist, "DEAN BROWN".. Dean taught the young Tyler the art of making traditional Navajo jewelry where he taught him 1st with earrings, where he had him working with super light gauge 32 gauge sterling, so if there were many mistakes(Which there were!) it wouldn't be too, too costly.
Tyler comes from a long list of well known "Navajo Royalty" with just a few of his uncles being Hemerson Brown, Anthony Skeets & Lee Charley. His cousin is Mathew Charley & the late KIRK SMITH was a 2nd uncle.. He LOVES working with vivid colored materials & is always working on trying to come up with new ways to create different style cluster pieces, which is one of his favorite style's that he loves making!

THE CUFF:
I know there are many of you that feel & experience the same thing as I do when I'm looking for a cuff that actually fits a tiny wrist & then without any luck in finding one to fit, we end up feeling discouraged & are left empty handed .. Cuff's being one of the only bracelets where you HAVE to know your wrist size for a cuff to fit properly,it is of extreme importance that they fit right! While in the searching mode, we only seem to come across ones that are made for larger wrist sizes & we with small ,tiny wrists always seem to be left out of the picture! So instead of wasting my time looking, I took the initiative & asked Tyler to personally make me a bunch of small wrist cluster cuffs, while still having the same exact look that we love with his larger sized wrist cuffs!
