Myron Panteah is an award winning Native American jeweller whose work is included in several museum collections. All his exquisite pieces of jewellery are unique, often intricately decorated with symbols and figures using a fine hand saw. He works in both silver and gold and selects unusual, natural stones of high quality.

People think I use a lazer to cut out the designs but it is all done by hand. The stones I use come from all over the world. I don't work in turquoise or coral or lapis like most Southwest jewelers. I like agates and jaspers because of the colours in them....greens and peaches and oranges, which are hard to find in other stones. The way I was taught, you don't value one thing more than another in something that is natural.
