Mated Wolves (Wolf Pair)
Carved in dolomite with turquoise inlaid eyes and power pack
Power pack has shell "arrowhead", coral and turquoise on heishi beaded sinew wrap

A very handsome fetish couple.
The wolf is an important animal in Zuni Pueblo fetish carvings.
It is a teacher of new ideas and wisdom, and represents intense loyalty with a balance of independence.
It is family oriented, and symbolizes warmth. It is a deeply spiritual figure for many carvers and owners, a pathfinder on journey of survival and a night story teller.
The wolf is part of six-directional fetish carvings, along with mountain lions, badgers, bears, eagles and moles.
