Kokopelli Traders - Native American Jewelry

We began Kokopelli Traders in 1995 because of our appreciation for Native American jewelry. Several times a year we travel to the Four Corners area of the United States to purchase jewelry which we hand select. If you enjoy the rich history, customs, beliefs and traditions that have been handed down through the generations, we believe that you will appreciate our jewelry which has been created by skilled Navajo craftsmen.

As with all legends handed down from generation to generation, there exists an array of tales about Kokopelli. The legendary Kokopelli was a hump-backed flute player of rock-art origin. He served the Navajo, Hopi, Zuni and other Indian cultures as a symbol of courtship, fertility and peaceful trade. His likeness was etched on the walls of caves and other areas where people exchanged messages or otherwise expressed themselves. That was several hundred years ago, some dating back as early as the third century.

Today Kokopelli still represents a positive life force. His message can be anything that brings you happiness. Keeping his likeness near you and those you love can create harmony and centering in an otherwise frustrating world.

Kokopelli brings abundance to those he meets. Wearing Kokopelli jewelry conveys best wishes for a joyful life. This is what we wish our customers.

Best wishes to you for a joyful life.
