Behind the Bench with Devin Edison

Meet Devin Edison, one of T.Skies' in-house jewelers. Devin, a Diné jewelry artist who specializes in silver and beadwork, has been a part of the T.Skies family since July 2018. On any given day, you'll find Devin hard at work in the shop—drawing an idea for a new piece, stringing a set of Desert Pearls, or brainstorming new ideas with other T.Skies artist. When he isn’t at the bench, he is learning the Navajo language and spending time with his family.
