Fernando Laiwakete., Fetish, Wolf, Multi-Stone, Zuni Hand-Carved, 2 1/2"

This Zuni hand-carved Wolf Fetish by Fernando Laiwakete. is sculpted from smooth white marble, its clean lines and softly contoured form capturing the quiet intelligence and loyalty associated with the wolf. The upright posture and gently lifted muzzle suggest alertness and spiritual awareness, qualities deeply honored in Zuni tradition. Adorning its back is a finely crafted medicine bundle composed of Pin shell, Jet, Coral, Sleeping Beauty Turquoise, and Kingman Turquoise, each stone thoughtfully chosen for both color and meaning. The vivid blues and reds create a striking contrast against the luminous marble body, while the dark jet accents add depth and balance. Masterfully detailed and elegantly proportioned, this piece reflects Laiwakete’s refined artistry and the enduring legacy of Zuni carving.
