A feature often seen on Zuni animal carvings are attached bundles of stones and shells known as offering bundles. Traditionally these bundles were arrowheads given to the animals associated with hunting as a blessing. Eli Cheama's Picasso marble bushytail (Fox, Wolf or Coyote) has a turquoise point offering tied on in the old-style manner, a beautiful touch. Eyes are from turquoise, while an overlaid nose is from jet. Mindfully placed etching marks represent a furry coat. Wild canines have powerful abilities that we do not and should be respected for those qualities. About 2 3/4" long, 3/4" wide and roughly 1 1/2" tall.
