Navajo Spoons: Indian Artistry and the Souvenir Trade, 1880-1940

Profusely illustrated with photographs of over five hundred spoons along with historical images, this book examines the production of silver spoons by Navajo artisans from the 1880s to World War II. The silversmiths brought the highest level of skill and invention to functional teaspoons, servers, and sugar shells, sought after by traders and travelers to the Southwest.
