Biography by Mateo James

Documented sterling silver hallmark of Hardy Thompson, Navajo silversmith - Native American maker's mark

Hallmark rendered from the documented mark, not a photograph.

Overview

Hardy Thompson is a Navajo silversmith, active since the 1970s. Hougart notes that his work may be stamped for the Atkinson Trading Company — so a piece bearing his H. THOMPSON mark may also carry, or have moved through, that trading-post connection.
