About :
Acheii; is Navajo for grandfather and Charpentier is French for Carpenter. By revamping and using a pre WWII scroll saw, researching the Euler Spiral and melding reflections of my Navajo maternal grandfather and my French paternal grandfather as these were their tools, was like looking back on time. A reflection of time and how that looks as Native American jewelry today
