Description

Navajo Wolf Kachina Doll by R. Begay – Hand-Painted, Wood & Leather

This is a handcrafted Navajo Wolf Kachina doll, signed by Native American artisan R. Begay. Kachina dolls are traditionally created to represent spirit beings, often used in ceremonies and storytelling. This particular carving depicts the Wolf Kachina, symbolizing strength, hunting skills, and protection.

Expertly hand-painted on wood, the doll features intricate details, including real fur, leather clothing, and traditional Navajo design elements. The bold black-and-white spotted pattern, painted fangs, and expressive stance give it a dynamic presence. The doll stands securely on a natural wood base, which is signed "R. Begay" on the underside.

Size:

  • Height: 11 inches
  • Width: 5 inches
  • Depth: 3 ½ inches

Condition:

In good condition with no damage. The paint, fur, and leather elements remain in good condition, and the structure is solid.
