About Us

For centuries Native Americans have labored to perpetuate a cultural heritage rich in symbolism and deeply steeped in ceremonial significance. Part of that heritage has always been exhibited through their artistic expressions. Ancient Nations endeavors to support the preservation of Native peoples and their culture by procuring and promoting the finest available Indigenous arts, and we treasure the opportunity we have to develop such great relationships with both artists and collectors.

We feel strongly about the integrity of the Indian art market. Our fate is inextricably intertwined with that of our Native neighbors. We work diligently to ensure that all of our efforts have a positive and lasting impact on both the artists and their art. Nearly everything we offer is purchased directly from the artist - and those that are not are obtained through relationships we have with other reputable dealers who share our visions, goals, and concerns.
