55 X 18mm turquoise smiling fetish bear pendant with silver pendant loop hand carved by Zuni artisan Claudia Peina.
A Zuni fetish is a carving believed to contain the powers of the animal carving and were central to Zuni culture and their religion prior to the Spanish invasion. Most always these were animals of prey, as the most powerful providers in life. Individually carved in semi-precious stones, many are enhanced with medicine bundles, arrows for protection or other adornments to enhance their power.
Our authentic heritage collection combines traditional Navajo silverwork and Zuni inlay with modern designs and reproductions from Native American classic history. All pieces are supplied with an authenticity card.
