Wright's Indian Art Newsletter - July 2010
THIS MONTH AT WRIGHT'S - JULY 2010
With its famed clarity of light, the Southwest landscape is a living canvas of textures: Rough-hewn cliffs and mesas, sandy desert soil, prickly, pointed plantings, brilliant sunshine and silvery moons reflecting off the precious rivers and creeks. To the sensitive eyes of an artist, this is a visual feast that nourishes their work, consciously, or through soul-memory. We have chosen to highlight a few of our outstanding pieces that reflect the varied textures and surfaces of the artists' homelands.

Link: a bond, connection, union, liaison, fastener, bridge, etc. In jewelry, links serve to connect separate elements into a flexible whole. They may be round, rectangular, flat, three-dimensional, or however a pair of creative and agile hands may make them. Link chains conform easily to the irregular anatomy of the neck; link bracelets, to different wrist sizes. The look of links is part of the esthetic of a piece; just as importantly, it usually translates into comfort, as well.
Different artists embrace the idea of links in their designs, but manage to create individual looks. Whether raised inlay, smooth inlay, silver, or a combination of metals, bracelets and necklaces that are connected by links are easier to fit, attach, and wear, for most people. If you've ever struggled to put on a cuff bracelet, or found you have trouble gauging the correct size for your wrist, a link bracelet will make you smile. The length of necklaces with link chains are easily adjusted - just fasten the clasp into a different link to shorten or lengthen. We have grouped some of our link jewelry for you to enjoy.
