Melon Shell Mountain Lion by Bernard Homer Jr, Deceased

$ 108.00

A melon shell mountain lion with jet inlaid eyes and a tail that wraps to the left side of the lion's body - carved by the now deceased Bernard Homer. Bernard wrapped a simple offering bundle around the lion's girth featuring a turquoise arrowhead, one coral and turquoise bead. For the Zuni, the lion represents the guardian of the north - he is the master hunter, revered for intelligence, prowess and strength of will. The mountain lion enjoys the prestige of being one of the most capable predators, and therefore conveys to man a spirit to refine goals, preserve, and achieve.
