Danny Romero

Biography by Mateo James

Hallmark documented in: Hougart, art-amerindien.com. Rendered from the documented mark, not a photograph.

Overview

Danny Romero (born 1954) is an artist and silversmith documented by Hougart as Yaqui/Spanish. His work spans casting, inlay, and appliqué, with petroglyph designs; his materials include walrus tusk, turquoise, and coral.

His documented mark is ROMERO — an etched or chopped mark. Hougart notes the letter O in the mark is rendered distinctively, but the scan garbles the exact description of it; we are holding that detail for verification against the physical volume.
