Hopi Blue Warrior Guard Katsina Doll

Acoma and Hopi woodcarver Alvin Leon's exquisite eye for detail inspires a Hopi Blue Warrior Guard katsina doll carved from cottonwood and intricately adorned with deerskin, yarn, feathers, yucca and pipecleaner. Katsinas are powerful and immortal spirits to the Hopi Pueblo People. Katsina dolls are representations of sacred beings and are not sacred themselves. About 5 1/4" tall, 2 3/4" wide and 2 5/8" deep, measurments include the base. Signed by the artist.
