Douglas Martza, Fetish, Owls, Multi-Stone, Zuni Hand-Carved, 4 1/2"

This Zuni hand-carved Owl Fetish by Douglas Martza is skillfully sculpted from natural antler, showcasing three owls perched in vertical harmony along a carved branch. Each owl is finely detailed with carefully incised feathers and expressive forms, symbolizing wisdom, intuition, and keen observation in Zuni tradition. Jet inlaid eyes provide a striking contrast against the creamy tones of the antler, bringing depth and life to each figure. The carving is mounted on a polished jasper base, grounding the piece with rich earth tones that complement the organic material above. Thoughtfully balanced and expertly crafted, this unique multi-figure sculpture reflects Martza’s artistry and the enduring tradition of Zuni hand-carved fetishes.
