Ida M. is a known Navajo silversmith, though detailed biographical information about her is limited in public records. She is recognized for her traditional Navajo silverwork, often working in sterling silver with turquoise stones, as seen in the hallmark “Ida M.” stamped alongside “STERLING.”

Her work typically features:

  • Classic Navajo styles such as twisted wire, stamped accents, and bezel-set turquoise.

  • Mid to late 20th-century craftsmanship, suggesting she may have been active between the 1970s–1990s.

Unfortunately, like many Native American artisans—especially women—detailed personal histories were not always well-documented unless the artist achieved national recognition. Her jewelry is collected and appreciated for its quality and adherence to traditional Navajo silversmithing techniques.
