Turquoise Warrior Maiden by Claudia Peina

$ 165.00

A two tone blue turquoise warrior maiden with a grayish white matrix, jet inlaid slit style eyes and coral mouth carved by Claudia Peina. The maiden wears a kilt like a shawl covered with intricate incised lines that form triangles that in turn have been inlaid with jet pigment and apple coral dots. The shield and spear are created from sterling silver with stamped patterns added to the shield. The maiden has one squash blossom bun on the right side with the hair on the left flowing downwards. The warrior maiden represents a Zuni female warrior who was called to serve her people prior to completing her hairdo. Note: the back of the right foot and on the bottom of the left in the front have indents. The maiden inherently symbolizes abundance, fertility and feminine energy.
