Our Story:

Together they have sold and showcased Gary's incredible designs as well as those of prominent Four Corners Native American artists and other local artists. All the jewelry at Lanka Blue is made from sterling silver, 14 karat gold, or 18 karat gold. Their jewelry also features an incredible variety of genuine turquoise as well as precious gemstones such as amethysts, diamonds, emeralds, rubies, sapphires and much more.

Lanka Blue Jewelry has stood the test of time as a Durango staple and must-see location for anyone visiting the area. If you're the kind of person looking to take home a handmade one-of-a-kind piece of this beautiful mountain town, Lanka Blue Jewelry is the right stop for you.
