I am Stephan Selina from the village of Soongopavi, located on Second Mesa, AZ. At an early age, I learned the art of Hopi Overlay jewelry making from my grandfather, Weaver Selina. I would watch him do the work in his shop. A year ago (2021), I started to take silversmithing seriously hoping one day to achieve and master the skills my grandfather has. Currently, I produce and sell my Overlay pieces from my grandparents shop, Rising Sun Gallery. I plan to continue with this work, so maybe someday my son will pick up the art. My hallmark is a bear with two "S"s. (Previously I was using my grandfather's hallmark, the Rising Sun.)
