Zuni Pipestone Eagle Fetish by Gilbert Lonjose

Channel higher perspective, spiritual connection, strength, and divine vision with the Zuni Pipestone Eagle Fetish, hand-carved by respected Zuni Pueblo artist Gilbert Lonjose. Sculpted in a perched posture from natural red pipestone (catlinite) with white matrix flecks, this eagle features a strong hooked beak, detailed scale-like feather etching along its shoulders, long wing lines, and bright inlaid turquoise eyes. In Zuni culture, the eagle is revered as the Master of the Sky, guardian of the Zenith (Above), and a sacred messenger that carries prayers to the divine, symbolizing clarity, courage, balance, and spiritual elevation.

Measuring 1 × 3/4 × 1 3/4 inches, this carving displays a proud profile, intricate feather texture, and warm red stone hues. Handcrafted with precision, it connects ancient Zuni animal symbolism with authentic Native American lapidary art. An exceptional addition to any Zuni fetish collection, medicine bag, or sacred display space.
