F.B. Kee Navajo Traditional Dancer – Hand-Carved Wood, Feathers, Signed
This dynamic hand-carved figure titled Traditional Dancer is the work of Fredrick B. Kee (F.B. Kee), a recognized Navajo artist known for his expressive Kachina-style representations. Rich in cultural detail, the figure features a poised dancer mid-motion, adorned in layered regalia including natural feathers, faux fur, and soft leather fringe. The painted wood face—half-red, half-orange—captures ceremonial expression with striking intensity.
A celebration of Navajo artistry, this piece reflects the symbolic power of traditional dance. Kee’s figures are celebrated for their motion, texture, and authenticity—often blending folk art charm with cultural reverence. Signed clearly on the underside of the natural wood base, it’s both a collectible and a visual tribute to heritage.
📦 Condition:
In good condition overall, with some expected wear to the feathers and leather fringe. No structural damage or missing components; the figure remains vibrant and well-composed.
