Tommy Singer RIP 5/31/14 Navajo Sterling Silver Gold Post Earrings Mountain  THOMAS SINGER FROM THE NAVAJO NATION Thomas Singer will be missed and my heart goes out to his wife Rosita and his family. He was traveling up highway 89 North when he lost control of his motorcycle and lost his life. Tommy Singer was a well-known Silversmith who specializes in Navajo Overlay Rug Pattern Jewelry. His inlaid turquoise, coral, & silver pieces incorporate traditional Navajo designs.  Tommy Singer gained acclaim as the originator of the chip inlay design which he developed in the 1970s. Singer was a member of the Navajo tribe from Winslow, Arizona. He perfected his craft working on the Navajo reservation in a small studio surrounded with his family and other tribal members. When asked about his work, Singer said, "Every piece is made with the various meanings from my traditional ways - the Navajo way of living. My father was a Silversmith, too. He taught me, and wanted me to continue this trade. It was my father's dream that I learn to silversmith so that I could continue his beliefs."
