The Artisan Behind the "JLR" MarkThe initials belong to the Reano family of Kewa (Santo Domingo) Pueblo, specifically attributed in commercial Southwestern trading posts to artisan Jerry Reano (often working collaboratively as Jerry & Lorraine Reano).The Pine Tree / Arrowhead Connection: In Native American lapidary work from the mid-to-late 20th century, the Reano family used this distinct arrowhead symbol next to their initials specifically to label their line of functional souvenir accessories (like money clips and keychains) that were built using sturdy stainless steel or nickel silver bases.
