Hammerhead shark Zuni fetish, made of serpentine with inlay turquoise eyes. Native American Made. Handmade by artist Fabian Tsethlikai, and signed on the bottom. An unusual Zuni fetish, since hammerhead sharks are not traditional, but a very cute example of a hammerhead.
Sharks are not a traditional Zuni fetish, but fish in general are an important symbol to the Zuni for their association with water, which is essential for all life on earth. Zuni carvers make fetishes of animals from all around the world, as examples of their creativity and skill.
Measurements: 1" tall, 2 5/8" wide, and 1" deep.
