Indigenous

I ended up buying 3 postcards, which were $ 1.99 each or 3 for $ 5. Pretty pricey. I didn’t bother pricing any of the turquoise jewelry in the case, which was very pretty. If a postcard is that over priced I can only imagine that everything in the store is similarly overpriced as well.
Indigenous sells a colorful range of Native American artwork, books, photos, and jewelery from Terminal 2 at Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport. Since my nephew is fascinated with anything that has to do with Native Americans, I stopped in here to see if I could find him something maybe for his birthday or Christmas.
I am familiar with the concept of «airport art» and wondered if the items were authentic Native American crafts. I couldn’t help but admire the «war bonnets» but I thought that those were from Plains Indians and not a Southwest tradition. So I’m not really sure exactly what a Native American shop is for the most part but I saw the sorts of crafts — Kachina dolls and beaded items — that one would expect — and likely at a premium price.

Really nice Native American shop in terminal 2 at the Sky Harbor (Phoenix) airport. I wanted to get a doll but I didn’t have that kind of cash on me at the time. I ended up getting a really gorgeous pair of teal and gold dream catcher earrings for $ 9 (they’re not tacky like some Native American craft jewelery.) I also bought the book, «Keep Going: The Art of Perseverance» by Joseph M. Marshall III for $ 12.95. It was an excellent book and just was what I needed to focus on during my plane ride. If I’m ever back in Phoenix, I’d for sure by stuff from there again.
