Zuni Carved Bird Fetish

Description

Zuni Carved Bird Fetish by Daryl Shack Sr.

Classic bird carved from purple sandstone accented with opal eyes and an offering bundle. These bundles are meant as a gift offering to the animal spirit. The bundles provide the animal spirit with energy, enhancing its powers and allowing its prayers to be heard more easily. This bird sits atop a turquoise arrowhead which helps him fly higher, closer to the Great Spirit. A wonderful carving by Zuni artist Daryl Shack Sr. The bird helps us to gain insight and aids in self-awareness.
