Stargazer Corn Maiden

By Kateri Quandelacy Sanchez, Zuni-Acoma

Animal: Corn Maiden, Material: Septarian Nodule
This offering is sold.

Fascinating septarian nodule is basically mud or clay balls that formed in ancient days and then fossilized. Crystalline calcite filled in the cracks in the clay mud. Dark lines can be seen along the edges of these inclusions, these are aragonite. Kateri Quandelacy Sanchez's stargazing Corn-Maiden has been sculpted from a septarian nodule with a stunning section of aragonite that's as rich as root beer. Facial features are from shell, etched and filled with jet paste, while a lovely green turquoise stone adorns. Roughly 1 3/8" tall, 1 1/8" wide and 1" deep.
