About the artist
David Reeves
(1949 - Deceased)
Navajo silversmith David Reeves was the older brother of Gary Reeves (now deceased) and Daniel "Sunshine" Reeves. He taught them both the craft of silversmithing, along with half-brothers Andy and Darrell Cadman.
David had an affinity for complex engraved and hand stamped geometric designs. He was a part of recreating and popularizing the old Navajo designs of the early 20th century.
