Description

Hopi Sunface Kachina Carving — Wood, Feathers, Fur & Leather, 25"

Striking Hopi-style Sunface Kachina carving, crafted from wood and richly adorned with natural feathers, fur, and leather. The figure captures a dynamic dancing pose, symbolizing the Sun spirit, with painted facial motifs in warm red and yellow tones framed by a halo of feathers.

Standing approximately 25 inches high, this piece displays an impressive sculptural presence and intricate handmade detailing. A distinctive work of cultural craftsmanship, ideal for collectors of Native American art or those seeking a visually powerful statement piece.
