Picture Jasper Maiden by Kateri Sanchez

$ 220.00

A striking tan and golden ocher colored picture jasper maiden with a gold-lip inlaid face and jet features that look to the maiden's left side. Carved by Kateri Sanchez - the maiden wears a fringe shawl and a squash blossom 'whirl' hair style that designates she is single. There are coral dots inlaid under the turquoise pendant and incised jet inlaid star bursts added to the maiden's shawl. Maidens symbolize abundance, fertility and feminine energy and corn maidens are revered in Zuni for giving up their life to help sustain the Zuni tribe with their corn bodies.
