{"title":"Dan Jackson","description":"Dan Jackson was an award winning Navajo silversmith who was best known for his meticulous “rug pattern” etchings in silver and gold. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDan learned silversmithing from his father, John Nez Begay who made jewelry for over 80 years, and lived to be 106 years old.  His mother, Bernice Charlie, was a weaver and was the source of Dan’s inspirations.  Visiting him in a dream, she stirred him to create his famous triple overlay rug design jewelry.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDan’s formal education was in engineering.  He worked for the Bureau of Indian Affairs for 20 years.  After being injured in 1985, Dan needed another way to support his family, including 4 daughters.  Being an accomplished silversmith, it only made sense to him to devote his time to making jewelry. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDan consistently collected awards and accolades at juried art shows.  He won numerous awards and ribbons at the Gallup Inter-Tribal Ceremonial, the Window Rock Arizona Tribal Fair, the New Mexico and Arizona State Fairs and the Shiprock New Mexico Fair.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDan Jackson passed away in May 2022. He was a dear friend and we will miss his sense of humor and undeniable talent.","products":[{"product_id":"coral-cuff-142","title":"Coral Cuff","description":"\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSterling Silver Cuff Bracelet with Mosaic Inlaid Mediterranean Coral Heishi Beads.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e1.5” Cuff Width\u003cbr\u003e5.5” Inside Measurement, plus 1” opening\u003cbr\u003e(6.5\" Total Circumference - Medium)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dan Jackson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39901600546899,"sku":"BR03309","price":2600.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0610\/6305\/files\/BR03309-57.jpg?v=1782863051"},{"product_id":"coral-shadowbox-cuff","title":"Coral Shadowbox Cuff","description":"\u003cp\u003eSterling silver coral row shadowbox cuff by Navajo silversmith Dan Jackson (1944–2022), featuring five oval coral cabochons set in a recessed shadowbox channel across a wide, softly rounded silver bracelet.
