<p>[QUOTE=&quot;reader, post: 3615251, member: 255&quot;]I’ve never seen these made with synthetics but since Komokwa has I can go with it. As far as the use of the term “depression” goes, there’s such a long history of abject poverty among so many of the tribes that the use of “junker” materials continued well past the Depression into the 60s and later so the term applied to that kind of jewelry well past the 30s although in my own experience Depression jewelry was really about Santo Domingo (Kewa)Pueblo jewelry and I’ve never really heard it applied elsewhere but if Zuni Pueblo used synthetics it’s a legit term to use IMO. </p><p><br /></p><p>Today, Depression jewelry is so popular that it’s being newly made. Basically one wants to look for the old gypsum beads on cotton.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
