About Thunderbird

Thunderbird Supply Company was founded in 1971 with a humble display case in a motel lobby in Gallup, New Mexico. Native American silversmiths and craftsmen would come to purchase finished stone for the jewelry they expertly crafted and became famous for. Word spread quickly about our exceptional customer service and competitive pricing, and Thunderbird Supply soon gained a growing list of customers who were looking for more than just finished stone.

Today, Thunderbird Supply is a thriving corporation serving a global market with an inventory of over 15,000 jewelry supply items—from lapidary tools to display cases. Despite our expansion, we remain a family-owned business with locations in three cities.

Headquartered in the heart of Indian Country, Thunderbird continues to serve a loyal Native American customer base, and our product offerings reflect our deep roots in Native American art, particularly from the Four Corners region. As our customer base diversifies, we proudly expand our product lines to meet the needs of everyone—from those with an appreciation for Native American craftsmanship to those passionate about creating their own jewelry.

Our commitment to providing high-quality, innovative products at great prices, paired with personalized and friendly service, has earned us customers from around the world.

This website is an extension of our local Indian supply shop, making it easier for you to access our products, no matter where you are. We appreciate your business and strive to keep you coming back for all your jewelry supply needs.
