Be still our hearts! We are in love with a shy Bear cub carved from angelite by Alexander Chavez. Much like qualities associated with angelite, this baby bear is both strong and gentle with a comforting energy likened to the presence of angels. Heartfelt eyes are from turquoise inlays, while little paws are preciously etched. About 1 5/8" long, 5/8" wide and 1 3/8" tall. View item

Unique Frog

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

Indigenous ancestors understood the vital connection between amphibians like frogs and ecological health. Their skin is permeable making them vulnerable to any environmental changes. The health of frogs reflects the health of ecosystems. In Zuni Pueblo, daakya (frog) often appear on prayer bowls and dances are given asking for water in the form of rain or snow. Carved frogs are considered a rain-bringing fetish associated with abundance, fertility and cleansing. Avery Calavaza's angelite Frog is very unique and measures approximately 2" long, 1 5/8" wide and 1 3/4" tall.

Wondrous Water Creature

Jimmy Yawakia

Animal: Frog, Material: Angelite

$110.00

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

Bestowed with good Frog medicine is Jimmy Yawakia's delightful amphibian sculpted from soothing angelite and given great eyes from red coral inlays. Because frogs live in water, they're associated with cleansing and healing in Zuni traditional ways. These small vertebrates need water spending more time in it than a related toad. Eggs, tadpoles and adult frogs are a critical component of many ecological communities. Other animals rely on them as a food source. Frogs are the first animals to respond to environmental changes like pollution and climate change. Their disappearance is an early warning sign something is wrong. About 2 1/2" long, 1 3/4" wide and 1" tall. View item
