styles changed over the centuries and native american jewelry makers used different materials and metals throughout the centuries while many centuries bones shells stones and items supplied by mother nature have been used for jewelry native american metalsmiths started to use iron brass and silver in the 19th century surprisingly late they started using silver for jewelry prior to 1850 the navajo and the pueblo people satisfied their demand for silver jewelry not by crafting those items as the needed silversmithing skills haven t been developed yet but rather through trade or warfare preferably they traded with spanish settlers or mexican plateros eventually silver was also acquired from other plains indians who used to trade with the french or the english settlers we cover each tradition in its own right the navajo the hopi the pueblo of zuni the wider pueblo people and further east and quite different the cherokee american coins like the morgan silver dollar have been worked into jewelry prior to 1890 thereafter defacing us silver coins was against the law which is why mexican silver pesos replaced the us silver coins as the most important source for silver needed
