Zuni Pueblo Indian Animal Fetish Carving
Zuni Frog Fetish
Signed on base "PM Zuni"
2" long x 11/16"w x 5/8"h
From a high-quality Zuni fetish collection.
This stone material is very unique, and we are having difficulty identifying it with 100% confidence.
It has a sedimentary nature to it, with possible fossil/shell inclusions much like elimia agate, but also has somewhat of a marble feel to it.
The signature also is not common and may present a challenge for many dealers & collectors to decipher.
In Zuni culture, frogs are known to invoke the spirits to provide rain. They can silently warn of danger.
Frogs are also associated with abundance, and at times, fertility.
