Turquoise Frog With Dragonfly by Daisy and Lavies Natewa

$ 45.00

A small turquoise frog with jet inlaid eyes carved by Daisy and Lavies Natewa. The frog plays host to a gold-lip mother-of-pearl dragonfly that has been placed in an offering bundle - topped with two coral and one turquoise bead. Both dragonflies and frogs are the result of water so are associated with the prominence of rain. As well, frogs are used to encourage the growth of crops in Zuni. The Zuni believe the frog is a reminder that we are all the same - development wise - we begin as tiny fishlike creatures in the womb then we evolve from swimmers to creatures of the land. The frogs sings its song reminding us of our watery beginning.
