Martha and Gene Jackson were Navajo silversmiths from Chinle, Arizona. A husband and wife team, they created impeccable handcrafted sterling silver jewelry for several decades. They were featured in many Native American jewelry books and won numerous awards.
Gene (1932-2021) learned his skills at an early age from carefully observing his father, who was a silversmith working in old traditional styles. After serving in the U.S. Army in the Korean War, Gene refined his abilities by attending a class at the Navajo Community College. Here, he was taught by the famous Navajo silversmith, Kenneth Begay. Martha (1933-2019) learned silversmithing from Gene in the 1960s, which began a long career of collaborating with her husband in jewelry. Martha also earned a master’s degree at the University of Arizona and taught linguistics and literature at Diné College. They stamped their work with their last name "JACKSON,” sometimes also with a hogan symbol. Their son, Tommy Jackson, is an award-winning silversmith as well.
