Pondside Frog

By Rosella Shack

Animal: Frog, Material: Pipestone
This offering is sold.

Rosella Shack's sgraffito-etched pipestone Frog waits pondside to snag a meal. Colorful turquoise inlays adorn this approximately 1 7/8" long, 1 1/8" wide and 1/2" tall water creature's eyes, nostrils and a flower's center. In Zuni Pueblo, frogs often appear on prayer bowls and dances are given asking for water in the form of rain or snow. They’re considered a major rain-bringing fetish, associated with abundance, fertility and cleansing.
