Jason Takala
+ Add Artist to My Preferences
Hopi artisan Jason Takala has been an active jeweler since 1966. He is the nephew of Bernard Dawahoya and lives in the village of Shungopavi at Second Mesa. His favorite design is the Man-in-the-Maze, one of the most difficult because of the closeness of the cut-out design, a feat he does by hand. His more recent works are executed in both silver and gold.
Jewelry by Takala was included in the exhibit “Jewels of the Southwest” at the Museum of Indian Arts and Culture, Santa Fe.
