Jasper Wood

Documented sterling silver hallmark of Jasper Wood - Native American maker's mark

Hallmark documented in: Hougart. Rendered from the documented mark, not a photograph.

Overview

Jasper Wood is a Southwestern silversmith, active since the 1980s. Hougart's entry does not state a tribal affiliation — the entry prints "(?)" where the nation would appear, so we leave it unstated rather than guess. The entry is otherwise a single line: it records the mark and nothing more. We publish it because the mark is real and collectors will meet it.
