FRITSON TOLEDO
Fritson Toledo has been sharing his artistic vision with people through metalsmithing for over forty years now. Fritson is a Navajo artist who has been working as a serious silversmith since he was a teenager. He later became a goldsmith while employed by Les Baker, a well-known southwestern jewelry designer and fabricator.
He was born in Cuba, New Mexico in September of 1961 to Mae and Chee Toledo, but he grew up in Torreon, NM. Growing up in a farming community located in a valley framed by the Jemez Mountains, Fritson would pass his time drawing.
