Turquoise Maiden Figure by Sandra Quandelacy

$ 240.00

A turquoise maiden figure with a gray matrix carved by Sandra Quandelacy depicting three corn maidens on one side and three mothers on the opposite - all with jet inlaid features. The maidens all have pendants - the corn maidens wear from left to right - a turquoise, apple coral and melon shell hand made pendant. The mothers on the opposite side wear a lapis, apple coral and green serpentine pendant. Sandra incised corn rows, dresses and hair strands making each female figure stand out. 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.
