Navajo sterling silver spoons are distinctive examples of Native American (Diné) silversmithing, primarily produced as souvenir or tourist items from the late 19th to mid-20th century, with some modern pieces continuing the tradition. 

Navajo artisans adapted silver working skills (learned from Mexican silversmiths in the 19th century) to create small, decorative flatware for the American souvenir market, which boomed around the 1890s–1940s alongside broader interest in Native American arts.
