In The Wild Iguana & Lizard

Lance Cheama

Animal: Lizard, Material: Variscite

$190.00

is backordered. We will ship it separately when it becomes available.

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.

Defensive Horned Lizard

Nelson Yatsattie

Animal: Lizard, Material: Queen's Creek Marble

$320.00

is backordered. We will ship it separately when it becomes available.

Horned Lizards have an amazing defense mechanism. Nictating membranes in the corners of their eyes enables them to squirt blood when provoked. They can accurately aim from several feet away at a predator’s eyes or mouth. Thanks to a steady diet of Harvester red ants, the horned lizard's blood contains formic acid that tastes terrible to these predators. Interestingly, the term formica from which the name is derived is the Latin word for ant, as formic acid is contained in ant venom. Nelson Yatsattie's smoothly sculpted Queen's Creek marble horned lizard has turquoise inlaid eyes and sgraffito-etched horns and claws. About 4 3/8" long, 2" wide and 1 1/4" tall.
