Navajo silversmith Pat Bedonie was born in Ganado, Arizona on the Navajo Reservation. She is of the Edge Water and Coyote Pass Clans. Pat’s mother, Lutricia Yellowhair, is an accomplished silversmith who passed the traditional Navajo jewelry making techniques and styles onto Pat, as well as her brother Ron.
Today, Pat lives in Farmington, NM and often collaborates with her mother to create an array of stunning jewelry including bracelets, rings, and pins. Pat is especially known for her fine traditional miniature silver boxes. Pat is proud to carry on the traditional jewelry making and hopes to pass it on to the next generation.
