Zuni Pueblo Indian
Bobcat Fetish Carving by Lena Boone
With gift pack on back to appease the fetish and to strengthen its powers.
2 1/4" long x 7/8"wide, approx. 1 1/4" tall with gift pack included
Carved in Magnesite, with shell and turquoise stones wrapped with sinew on back.
In Zuni culture, bobcat fetishes (sometimes also seen as wildcats or lynxes) are not widely carved. It represents favorable hunting, as in the case of hunting antelope.
Zuni Bobcat fetish carvings are not traditional but they can be seen carved by many of the master contemporary Zuni fetish carvers, often in high detail. They are identified by their short, bobbed tail and their whiskers extending outwards on the sides of their face. They are very often carved in a dynamic pose or stance, seemingly ready to pounce, attack, or run.
We carry a great selection of Zuni fetish carvings. Please contact us through any of our listings for more information.
