Founded in 2013 by Nanibaa Beck, a Diné jewelry designer based in North Carolina, NotAbove offers handcrafted jewelry and minimal original language necklaces with a focus on Native languages.

Fun fact: The name NotAbove was inspired by a mispronunciation of the founder’s name in 2007, which she has since carried into her work ethic and how she collaborates with others – not above, but beside each other.

Nanibaa Beck is a 2nd generation Dine’ (Navajo) metalsmith.
