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.

This one–of–a–kind Zuni Frog Fetish Carving by Laate is a truly special piece. Hand–crafted with natural orthoceras fossil, the frog has two sparkling turquoise eyes and intricate turquoise design accents. Created by renowned artist Danette Laate, this unique artwork will be an eye–catching addition to any home. Keep the frog fetish as a reminder of the importance of nature and the beauty of wild creatures. This piece offers a touch of a distant culture that will add character and charm to your living space.
