Meet the Artist
Andy Cadman was born in Gallup, New Mexico, in 1966. He began making jewelry at age 23 and has continued working as a full-time jeweler ever since. For many collectors, his family background adds value, as the Cadman name is closely associated with traditional Navajo silverwork in New Mexico.
Andy Cadman is often discussed alongside Darrell Cadman, Gary Reeves, and Sunshine Reeves, all of whom share familial connections.

Discover Andy Cadman's Work
