Picasso Marble Six-Directional Figure by Lance Cheama

$ 150.00

A muted yellow ocher and gray colored six-directional figure carved by Lance Cheama with the six directional animals peaking out of the stone - all have turquoise inlaid eyes. tail of the animals have incised fur and the eagle has incised symbolic carved feathers with the badger getting an incised badger stripe. The mole at one end is virtually carved in the round. Then behind the eagle is a grouping of faces - a badger, then a mountain lion and finally a bear. This six-directional figure represents the six animals the Zuni revere and the directions they represent - so the North is represented by the mountain lion, the South; the badger, East is the Wolf, the West is the Bear, the nether region is the mole with the eagle.
