Featuring the finest in American turquoise.....
     set in handmade Native American jewelry!

Located on historic Canyon Road in Santa Fe, the Silver Sun has been welcoming visitors for over 25 years.   We carry a wide array of  Native American  jewelry, pottery,  and fetishes.   Our in-house designers and silversmiths create both traditional and unique contemporary jewelry in a wide variety of stones.  The Silver Sun is well-known for  Native American handmade jewelry with collectible, natural American turquoise.  During the  years we've watched a parade of fabulous blues and greens march in and out of our gallery on Canyon Road.  Today, it is becoming more and more difficult to find  natural American stones.    We are always on the search to acquire turquoise from miners working individual claims and from personal caches.  We believe the effort is paying off...

We are so excited....
      We now have great new jewelry

          by some of the best Santo Domingo Artists!
