Benjamin Brown
Overview
Benjamin Brown is a Navajo silversmith documented in Hougart's hallmark reference. Hougart's entry is a short one — it records his family line and his mark, and nothing more. We publish it because the mark is real and collectors will meet it.
He was the brother of Tsos Brown and Gilbert Brown, both smiths documented in their own right.
