Morris Robinson (Hopi 1900-1987) was one of the great forerunners of Charles Loloma.  According to the 1923 U. S. Indian Census, in 1924 Morris was living and working making jewelry for Graves and Vaughn’s Indian Store in Phoenix, Arizona.  During the next four decades, Morris became a master goldsmith and silversmith.  His creative and innovative designs distinguished him among his peers: Ralph Tawangyawma, Harold Jenkins, Frank Nutima, Allen Pooyouma, and Pierce Kewanwytewa. They influenced the next generation of contemporary Hopi jewelers, including Preston Monongye and Charles Loloma. Morris Robinson was of the Snake Clan from the villages of Oraibi and Bacabi on the Hopi Third Mesa.  His hallmark is H & a snake.
