White Marble Buffalo by Andres Lementino

$ 130.00

A striking white marble buffalo with turquoise inlaid eyes carved by Andres Lementio with some gray streaks - mostly noticeable on the buffalo's tail and back hind legs. Andres' signature double Zuni sun face has been inlaid onto the buffalo's left side utilizing bits of turquoise, jet, apple coral, clam, gold-lip and mother-of-pearl shell - to name most. The Sun face is an ancient symbol in Zuni culture, representing the sacred Sun Father. The symbol's round motif depicts the Sun with a forehead split down the middle to reflect the eternal balance between sunrise and sunset. To the Zuni, the Sun face represents prosperity, happiness, peace, hope, optimism, and positive energy. Combine the luck of the sun face with the meaning of the buffalo - to help mankind overcome all obstacles, build emotional courage and physical strength - to bring abundance and initiate prayerfulness and viola - you can't help but have good luck with this buffalo by your side!
