About Phillip SanchezBorn in 1951 at San Filipe Pueblo, New Mexico, Phillip was raised on a large ranch along with 8 sisters and 5 brothers. They raised livestock and farmed fruits and vegetables. Phil learned the basics of jewelry making and crafting in junior high school, and he continued to work on his jewelry techniques throughout high school. His work often features high-quality turquoise, such as Royston and Dry Creek, set in sterling silver. His pieces are typically stamped "P Sanchez" and "Sterling". Phil speaks a number of Native American pueblo dialects including San Felipe, Santa Domingo, Acoma, Zia, Luguna and Cochiti. |
