{"id":8439696523498,"title":"Gold-Lip Mother-of-Pearl Maiden Figure by Vickie Quandelacy","handle":"62477","description":"A regal gold-lip mother-of-pearl maiden figure carved by Vickie Quandelacy featuring a mother on one side and a corn maiden on the opposite - both have jet inlaid features. The maiden figure is mounted to a small white and gray spotted marble base for added stability - that in turn has turquoise bits inlaid all around it. On one side, Vickie has formed from the shell a bowl near the base, then she inlaid turquoise chips to convey water is pouring out of the bowl. Vickie is known for the elaborate necklaces she adorns her maidens in and this maiden figure is no exception. The corn maiden wears a turquoise and pen shell necklace with a large turquoise and apple coral pendant and the mother on the opposite side wears a pen shell and turquoise necklace as well - shaped in a different fashion with three coral dots. Lapis and malachite dots are inlaid all over the maidens' shawls with jet inlaid star bursts and dragonflies adding a striking contrast to the incised lines of the maidens' shawls. 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.\u003cbr\u003eArtist: Vickie Quandelacy (signed)\u003cbr\u003eSize: 2-3\/8 in. wide x 7\/8 in. deep x 4-7\/8 in. tall, Base:2-1\/4 in. long x 1-1\/8 in. deep x 5 16 in. tall\u003cbr\u003e#62477","published_at":"2024-10-15T08:50:03-06:00","created_at":"2024-10-15T08:50:05-06:00","vendor":"Vickie Quandelacy","type":"Maiden Figure","tags":["Fetish","Maiden","October 2024","Table"],"price":37500,"price_min":37500,"price_max":37500,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":0,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":44814778171626,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"62477","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"Gold-Lip Mother-of-Pearl Maiden Figure by Vickie Quandelacy","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":37500,"weight":5,"compare_at_price":0,"inventory_quantity":1,"inventory_management":"shopify","inventory_policy":"deny","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[]}],"images":["\/\/sunshinestudio.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/2cc455fd4c109f5c9eee0680ff469558.jpg?v=1729003805","\/\/sunshinestudio.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/8324015d8566476aeb43a7c2231aa9dc.jpg?v=1729003805"],"featured_image":"\/\/sunshinestudio.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/2cc455fd4c109f5c9eee0680ff469558.jpg?v=1729003805","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"Gold-Lip Mother-of-Pearl Maiden Figure by Vickie Quandelacy - Zuni Fetish Sunshine Studio","id":33218933293290,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.412,"height":718,"width":1014,"src":"\/\/sunshinestudio.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/2cc455fd4c109f5c9eee0680ff469558.jpg?v=1729003805"},"aspect_ratio":1.412,"height":718,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/sunshinestudio.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/2cc455fd4c109f5c9eee0680ff469558.jpg?v=1729003805","width":1014},{"alt":"Gold-Lip Mother-of-Pearl Maiden Figure by Vickie Quandelacy - Zuni Fetish Sunshine Studio","id":33218933326058,"position":2,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":450,"width":450,"src":"\/\/sunshinestudio.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/8324015d8566476aeb43a7c2231aa9dc.jpg?v=1729003805"},"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":450,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/sunshinestudio.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/8324015d8566476aeb43a7c2231aa9dc.jpg?v=1729003805","width":450}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"A regal gold-lip mother-of-pearl maiden figure carved by Vickie Quandelacy featuring a mother on one side and a corn maiden on the opposite - both have jet inlaid features.
