The year was 1973 when Steve Delzio journeyed out West where he became immersed in the Native American and Mexican culture. While planning a trip back home to Somers, New York to make it in time for his parents 25th anniversary, he decided to bring with him a van full of merchandise from the West to sell and fund his trip back home. Impressed by his selection, he was given offers from various buyers to venture back to the land that sparked his imagination and stock up once again with more hand-made treasures.
After two years of developing relationships with Native American artists from the West while attending trade shows in Phoenix and roundtable sessions in Mesa, his admiration and eye for recognizing quality in Native American jewelry strengthens. By 1975, Steve Delzio rented a 600 square foot space to display his careful selection of handmade merchandise from his trips to Arizona, New Mexico and Mexico.
Steve continues to make several trips a year to the region where turquoise is mined and jewelry is meticulously crafted by hand.
