Edward (Eddie) Beyuka Eddie Beyuka became well known for his mosaic inlay kachinas and dancers that double as standing figures. The three-dimensional components of his pieces, such as full-round miniature drums and baskets make them very distinctive. Beyuka started making jewelry in 1956, working with his wife Madeline for a number of years. Madeline did the inlay and Eddie did the silverwork on their collaborative pieces. After they divorced, Eddie started doing both the silver and stonework on his jewelry. Sons Jonathan and Filbert do work that is very similar in style and subject matter to their father's. Daughter Christine is also a jeweler, but she does not produce kachina figures.
