Kimberly Willie

Biography by Mateo James

Kimberly Willie — Navajo silversmith hallmark namecard

Name-card placeholder — hallmark imagery to follow.

Overview

Kimberly Willie is a Navajo silversmith active since around 2010. Hougart describes her work as traditional — set stones, finished with roping bezels. She is the daughter of Wes Willie (not yet in the directory).

One honest gap worth stating up front: Hougart records no hallmark for her. The entry's mark line prints only a question mark. If you are holding a piece attributed to Kimberly Willie, the attribution rests on something other than a documented stamp — provenance, a signed card, the seller's record — not on a mark you can look up here.

The Mark

"Kimberly Willie (Navajo). Active since c.201 O [scan's rendering of c.2010]. Traditional; set stones; roping bezels. Daughter of Wes Willie. Mark: ?"
— Hougart, Bille. Native American and Southwestern Silver Hallmarks, 5th ed. (2022).

The marks as documented in the Hougart corpus: Mark unrecorded in Hougart (entry prints "Mark: ?").
