Good Navajo jewelry in the Monument Valley area.

The Navajos have a store in Cameron. There is also a trading post there

the best place I know of since I am from the rez is .. Earls .. if you travel to Gallup, there is a restaurant named Earl's .. outside and inside you can buy NA jewelry from the licensed venders ... beautiful work can be had for very cheap prices compared to retail outlets .. you can barter on the prices as well .. the flea market on weekends in Gallup is another place .. if you see a posted pow wow or Navajo fair, there you will find many venders as well .. remember buying direct from the NA seller benefits them while selling their goods to retail outlets or pawn shops results poor prices for their hard work .. good luck ..

On the road that goes around the north side of Canyon de Chelley there are parking lots at the view points and Navajo women set out blankets and work on their jewelry as well as sell it for quite reasonable prices.

If you are in Sedona, go to Garland's on Hwy 89A up Oak Creek Canyon. Beautiful selection. I buy all my nice pieces there.
