Native Women Make Etkie Bracelets! Etkie collaborates with skilled Native American artisans from underemployed communities on the Navajo Nation in New Mexico. They are designed to empower the women who make and wear them. Each Etkie cuff is beaded by hand to create pieces of timeless and ethical heirloom jewelry. Contemporary and traditional Navajo esthetics are blended. Softest buck on inside; a pleasure to wear.
