Ben Nighthorse Rock Art Jewelry
Inspired by the petroglyphs of the Southwest, Ben Nighthorse’s Rock Art designs are modern classics. Rock Art is a term in archaeology for any man-made markings made on natural stone. Early Native Americans made Rock Art images as a method of communication. These images have many meanings: from their use for spiritual teaching to young tribal initiates, from lessons for the more mature on The Greater Journey of Life to a way of saying, “We were here!” which has echoed down through the ages. In Ben’s words, “This design for me represents roots and stability … a timelessness.”
Ben Nighthorse Jewelry can be found exclusively at Sorrel Sky Gallery. For over 50 years, Northern Cheyenne artist Ben Nighthorse has created beautiful, award winning jewelry using the highest quality precious and semi-precious stones, including diamonds, turquoise and lapis set in 18 karat gold and the finest sterling silver.
