Zuni Bear Fetish – Bone, Coral, Turquoise, Arrowhead Bundle
Hand-carved by a Zuni artisan, this striking fetish features a bear form sculpted from smooth bone, symbolizing strength and healing in traditional Zuni culture. The figure is accented with a classic offering bundle tied in leather, featuring a carved orange arrowhead, polished turquoise and red coral nuggets, and white shell beads. These natural materials are bound atop the bear’s back, enhancing its ceremonial and symbolic presence.
Unsigned but well-crafted, this piece reflects the spiritual artistry and cultural heritage of Zuni fetish carving. Compact yet detailed, it makes a meaningful addition to any Native American art collection or personal altar.
