Bessie Boone, Zuni Pueblo Beadwork Artist

Zuni Pueblo artisan Bessie Boone was noted for her intricate beadwork creations. We have seen incredibly beaded nativity scenes made by her hand.

Making beaded figurines is a painstaking, demanding task and Bessie Boone (ca.1909-ca.1999) was an extremely skillful bead worker.
