Many Hopi jewelry artists make chains by hand, but Loren Kootswatewa is a unique craft artist who makes only Hopi chains. This is one of his chains. When we received this chain from the artist himself, we asked him to attach a plate stamped with Loren's hallmark, but Loren has no hallmark of his own. He said, “I'm the only Hopi silversmith who makes only chains, so people in Hopi will recognize this chain as mine when they see it. I don't need a hallmark.” Instead, we had Loren sign the card that LONGBRANCH gives customers together with the product. Material: Sterling silver Dimensions: Total length approximately 62 cm; width 0.4 cm Artist: Loren Kootswatewa (Hopi)
