About The Branded Bear
The Branded Bear is committed to only selling authentic first quality Native American Indian jewelry and pottery at competitive prices in accordance with the law. We do not offer imported or fake stones/metals on the Native American items we sell.
All of our fine jewelry is first quality, hand picked and inspected. We do not sell seconds or items other traders have passed over.
We are pleased to announce the addition of original designs in spiritual and religious jewelry dedicated to our Grandmother Anna Mae. We do hope you will check the beautiful cross earring and pendant sets in this line. Both are made with natural Sleeping Beauty Turquoise.
We participate in 'fair trade' meaning we pay asking price for our jewelry. We make several trips a year to the Native American pueblos and our jewelry buy on site.
Some items we offer may truly be one of a kind. Once they are sold they are gone and will not be offered again!
We ship via USPS Priority. Insurance is mandatory on all Native American items due to value and unique characteristics of each item. What we sell is not mass produced or manufactured but individually made, making each one unique!
Unless limited by size, our jewelry comes in gift boxes suitable for gift giving. Most items will ship the next business day after payment is received.
We LOVE to combine shipping to save on costs! A great deal of jewelry can ship for one flat rate.
Purchases provide employment opportunities for Native Americans in traditional crafts. It is important to keep traditions, arts and crafts alive!
We are constantly searching for new artists so that we may present fresh and interesting sterling silver, turquoise, malachite, coral, gaspeite, amethyst and onyx jewelry as well as Acoma, Navajo and Zuni pottery.
We do not include pictures of Native Americans in our listings out of respect for them as individuals. Our feedback speaks for itself regarding the quality and authenticity of our items. We welcome any questions you may have prior to purchase.
Upon receiving merchandise and if something is not right, please contact us. We work hard on our listings and try to provide all the details. We will always work with you to make things right.
It is a pleasure and honor to represent the crafts of North American Native American Indian jewelry and pottery. We hope to see you soon.
