Warren Nieto is a young artist from Santo Domingo Pueblo who has melded traditional and contemporary jewelry; his carved turquoise earrings infilled with black are his own work and are not seen elsewhere. Christopher Nieto works from the large and spectacular to the small and intricate, specialising in inlay using deer antler and other stones. His inlay uses no filler between the pieces, so it is completely smooth, and all his materials are natural with no dyes.
