Horses

Zuni carver, Todd Etsate, carved this sweet little white appaloosa from white marble and inlaid turquoise dots on the rump, and turquoise eyes.  The mane and tail are detailed.  Appaloosas were bred by the Nez Perce people in the Pacific Northwest.

Size: 1.375" H x 1.675" L x .25" W

Many Native American people believe that horses were in North America before the colonizers arrived.  Many Native American people have special relationships with horses, and this was evident during the camps at Standing Rock to protect and defend the river.  They represent freedom and safety in travel.  And for those of us lucky enough to have had a powerful relationship with horses, they make wonderful friends.

Each Zuni fetish comes in a box with a descriptive card and a tiny bit of corn meal to tide them over until they reach you.

Zuni carver, Cheryl Beyuka, carved the little horse and big horse and bundled them together with coral and turquoise beads.  They are carved from Zuni fish rock (serpentine), and have inlaid jet eyes.  They look so happy together!
