Lance Cheama descends from the greater Natewa, the late Dallas Quam and Panteah extended family of Zuni artists. In the 1970's the Cheama family was the first to carve detailed and realistic animal subjects. Lance has taught the art of stone carving to many fellow family members. His latest offering is creatively sculpted from a single variscite specimen showcasing two gorgeous Lizards who share space in the wild. The iguana is beautifully detailed with a dewlap or throat fan and wonderful eyes from verdant malachite inlays. Incised beaded scales and segmented tail whip around on the shell-eyed reptile who runs across the iguana's back. About 2 1/2" long, 5/8" wide and 1/2" tall.
