Otter Ornament

Robert Michael Weahkee is a fourth-generation carver from Zuni Pueblo. His grandmother was a renowned Zuni artist, the late Edna Leki. Robert's delightful floating otter ornament has been carved from burnished antler. Eyes are from turquoise and an offering necklace has quartz, peridot and coral beads. Otter holds an etched gift box with a bow or heart topper. Dimensions are about 5 3/8" long plus a 4" loop, 1 1/4" wide and 1 1/2" deep.
