Collection: Olin Tsingine
Olin Tsingine, born in Phoenix in 1975, is a Hopi and Hopi/Navajo silversmith whose work is deeply rooted in his upbringing near First Mesa. After a diverse path, including a pilot scholarship, Olin turned to jewelry making at 32, excelling quickly in soldering and mastering techniques like tufa and sand casting, inlay, and heishi bead rolling.
Mentored by renowned artists like Steve LaRance, Marion Denipah, Edison Cummings, and Cody Sanderson, Olin’s jewelry is known for its creativity, balance, and use of high-quality Southwest turquoise and Mediterranean Coral. Inspired by his Hopi heritage and the desert landscape, Olin’s one-of-a-kind pieces pay tribute to the legendary Charles Loloma while constantly evolving with new techniques and designs.
