This piece of Indigenous jewellery has been laser-engraved. The craft of laser-engraved silver jewellery involves a sophisticated process which allows highly skilled artisans to bring their designs to life with utmost precision, durability, and intricacy. It is both meticulous and hands-on at every step: from the initial sketch, laser programming and engraving, to the cleaning and polishing of each completed, individual piece.
Art Sterritt, also known as Myanxa, trained as a carver and printmaker at 'Ksan, an historic village, museum, and art school near the former village of Gitanmaax, which opened in 1970. From 1970 to 1972, he studied under established Gitxsan artists Walter Harris and Earl Muldoe, learning carving and jewelry engraving. Art currently resides in Prince Rupert, BC, where he remains active in creating ceremonial headdresses and totem poles for the Gitxsan and Wet'suwet'en peoples.
