Description

Lakota/Navajo Carved Dragonfly Fetish by Philip Romero

The dragonfly appears in summer and is an indication that water is near. They are a celebration of the summer rains. This sweet piece was created from a gourd with orange alabaster wings, an offering bundle of red sandstone and it is mounted on red standstone. Native American Lakota/Navajo Philip Romero created this whimsical piece.
