Larry\u2019s earlier designs were also similar, but easily distinguishable from, to those of Troy Natachu. Over the past fifteen years, Larry has been quite productive as the demand for his designs has grown.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>When silver prices soared a few years ago, there was a lull. \u00a0But now, even with silver prices still high, customers like both his evolving designs and the heft associated with each piece. Larry has introduced several \u2018shadow box\u2019 designs, some variation to the running stone line. \u00a0This includes pieces\u00a0such as a zigzag pattern and some multi-rowed designs, with the stones in closely spaced channels.\u00a0 In comparison, the older multi-row designs of deceased Zuni jeweler, Robin Banteah, come to mind.\u00a0 Yet Larry\u2019s designs are much more bold and strong. One other design is a \u2018double\u2019 bracelet &#8211; two single narrow channel inlay bands which meet at the tips, thus having a space between the bands.\u00a0 This has become very popular. Stones used by Larry are of the highest quality, be it turquoise or coral.<\/p>\n<p>Larry lives in Zuni and is currently trying to interest his 20 year old\u00a0son, Shane, to work with him. <a href=\"#top\">Back to top&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fairly young to have such a solid reputation, Larry Loretto is only 40.\u00a0 His bracelets are popular among those who&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"parent":2588,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_mi_skip_tracking":false,"ngg_post_thumbnail":0},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.5 -
