Douglas Martza, Fetish, Maiden, Multi-Stone, Zuni Hand-Carved, 3 1/2"

Description

This Zuni hand-carved Maiden Fetish by Douglas Martza is beautifully sculpted from natural antler, highlighting its organic texture and warm ivory tones. The figure wears a traditional tablita-style headdress, intricately detailed with carved elements and symbolic markings. Accents of Sleeping Beauty Turquoise, vibrant coral, and sleek jet are carefully inlaid throughout the piece, adding striking color contrast against the antler. Fine line work and bead-like inlays adorn the garment, reflecting traditional Zuni design motifs. Graceful and culturally expressive, this handcrafted maiden embodies heritage, artistry, and the enduring spirit of Zuni carving traditions.
