Navajo sterling silver pillboxes are traditional handmade items crafted by Navajo (Diné) silversmiths, often featuring intricate hand-stamped designs, geometric patterns, or turquoise accents. These small hinged boxes, typically 1-2 inches in size, were historically popular as tourist items in the mid-20th century (including the Fred Harvey era) and used for pills, trinkets, stamps, or small jewelry. Many vintage pieces are collectible today, with plain silver or turquoise-set variations.
