Number Eight Mine Turquoise Maiden by Kateri Sanchez

$ 120.00

A small Number Eight Mine, Nevada quarried turquoise corn maiden with a prominent brown matrix and a gold-lip inlaid face that looks upwards with jet features - carved by Kateri Sanchez. There are nicely incised corn rows that taper to a point near the base with jet inlaid star bursts and one dragonfly inlaid to the right side of the maiden. Maidens symbolize abundance, fertility and feminine energy and the corn maiden is venerated in Zuni for giving up her life for the health of the community.
