{"title":"シャロルド・ヌトゥミア","description":"\u003ch4\u003eHopi Silversmith, Parrot Clan — Old Oraibi, Third Mesa — Artist’s Hallmark: Initials\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSharold Nutumya, affectionately known as “Chubby” by his family and friends, is a highly respected Hopi silversmith whose career spans over four decades. Born into the Parrot Clan in the historic village of Old Oraibi on Third Mesa, Sharold has dedicated his life not only to the mastery of his art, but also to the preservation of Hopi traditions, land, and community.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSharold began his journey as a silversmith in 1974 at the age of twenty, studying at Hopicrafts under the guidance of the esteemed Glen Lucas. He recalls his early days fondly: “I couldn’t find a job with the tribe and I didn’t want to leave Hopi, so I went to Hopicrafts to see if they would let me study jewelry making with them. They said yes, so I started to learn. First you work with brass, then copper… that way you make your mistakes with less expensive metals while you’re learning. Then I started working in silver. The first thing I ever made was bolo tips!” His natural talent quickly became evident, and he remained with Hopicrafts until its closure in 1983.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfterward, Sharold continued his work through the Hopi Guild, and later as an independent artist. Working on his own gave him greater creative freedom—he was no longer limited by institutional expectations and could fully express his artistic vision through traditional overlay techniques and personalized designs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSharold’s craftsmanship has earned him broad recognition, including a feature in Hopi Gold, Hopi Silver, a 2014 book by Zena Pearlstone that highlights twelve exceptional Hopi jewelers. His work is celebrated for its precision, authenticity, and deep cultural resonance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeyond his artistry, Sharold plays an active role in his community. Though he has respectfully declined formal invitations to serve as the kikmongwi (traditional village leader) of Old Oraibi, he nonetheless serves the village with dedication—maintaining the kiva, caring for village affairs, and helping sustain ceremonial life. He also works with the Hopi Cultural Preservation Office, helping document and protect historical and archaeological sites such as ancient ruins and petroglyphs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA dedicated farmer, Sharold cultivates traditional Hopi crops including corn, watermelon, squash, and beans, and also maintains cattle—an uncommon practice among Hopi farmers. His commitment to land stewardship reflects the enduring values of Hopi life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSharold is the proud father of two sons and a daughter, and grandfather to twelve grandchildren and one great-grandson. Family remains central to his life, and he is often accompanied by a relative—frequently a grandchild—when traveling or delivering his jewelry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHumble by nature, Sharold Nutumya may not speak loudly of his own accomplishments, but his legacy speaks volumes. He is admired not only for his artistry, but for his steadfast service to his family, his people, and the Hopi way of life.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"man-in-the-maze-buckle-8","title":"Man in the Maze Buckle","description":"\u003cp\u003eRectangular Sterling Silver “Man in the Maze” Belt Buckle made by Hopi silversmith, Sharold Nutumya in 2010.
