Native American Fetishes are small carvings made from various materials such as bone, shells, and gemstones. These carvings traditionally serve a ceremonial purpose for their creators and depict animals and icons integral to their culture. Each animal has great significance and meaning, many with protective abilities or healing powers. Fetish carvings are believed to have magical powers and protect or enhance the owner or craftsman.
Collectors worldwide collect fetishes as a form of contemporary Native American art with an appreciation for the craftsmanship and meaning behind each fetish. The meaning of each is provided within the product. However, over time many carvers started to create some non-traditional animals due to requests, region, and popularity. These non-traditional fetishes may not have the significance or abilities of other more traditional fetish carvings.
Immerse yourself in the beauty of this Zuni horse fetish, meticulously hand-carved from fish stone (serpentine) by talented artist Carol Martin. Enhanced with genuine black onyx inlaid eyes, as well as a striking black onyx hand design and forehead accent, this piece embodies the intricate craftsmanship and spiritual significance of Southwest Native American art. Celebrating the bond between humans and horses, it symbolizes enlightenment & healing in Zuni culture. Perfect for collectors and admirers of fine art, this fetish captures the essence of cultural heritage and artistic excellence, making it a prized addition to any collection or decor.
