Our story Unega Yona Studio, was founded from a love of Native American turquoise and Southwestern wearable art. Every piece reflects a tradition and spirit of a connection to our spiritual earth.
The name Unega Yona means White Bear in Cherokee, chosen to honor strength, resilience and who I am. This studio is more than jewelry-it's a space for heritage, storytelling and authenticity.
Everyone who knows me, has seen my struggles. It's been an uphill battle at every turn. I stand strong, honest and determined to leave this a better world for my children, my children's children and every generation after. I will not back down for what I believe, even with my last breath.
Wado!
