Born in 1949 and raised in Seba Dalkai area, Fidel Bahe is thefirstborn of 8 children, 2 sisters and 5 brothers. Fidel began silversmithingat age 24, focusing on traditional Navajo designs with his own creative flair.In 1976, Preston Monongye took Fidel in as an apprentice and taught him thefundamentals and techniques to become a great jeweler. After ten months ofapprenticeship, Fidel showed his jewelry at Santa Fe Indian Market, winningribbons for all of the pieces he entered.

The art of jewelry-making was originally just a hobby for FidelBahe. After learning the basics of his craft, he apprenticed with Victor Beckand learned contemporary styling. Charles Loloma was also an inspiration andcritic of his work, giving Fidel advice to help lead his art in a newdirection.

While attending welding school Fidel met his close relativeWilson Jim who worked at Rocking Horse Ranch with Edison Smith. Jim and Smithtaught Bahe the basics about traditional art and techniques including stampwork. During this time, Fidel was inspired to put traditional designs back intohis pieces. Since then, Fidel has focused on quality, consistency, uniqueness,and cultural and artistic values. Of the inspiration behind his imaginativework, he says “it hits you right between the eyes.”

Over the years, Fidel Bahe entered many pieces at Santa FeIndian Market, winning ribbons every year until 1991 when he won three First-Placeand 2 Second-Place Ribbons before deciding not to return to the competition.Fidel feels his pieces are seen as finished and refined traditional work in thefirst and second phases of Navajo jewelry.

After an accident that injured his eye, Fidel learned the art ofnatural horsemanship and training foals. He now spends equal time between the artsof jewelry and horsemanship. For Fidel, his two passions come together as one,each embracing the six keys -- attitude, knowledge, tools, technique, time, Historical Masterpiece by HighlyCollectible Navajo Artist, Fidel Bahe is TRULY a ONCE IN A LIFETIME find! ThisCuff is the ULTIMATE addition to any Native American Collection.
