Turquoise Maiden by Sandra Quandelacy

$ 300.00

A striking turquoise maiden figure with a grayish brown matrix featuring a corn maiden on one side and an unmarried woman on the other - both have jet features and the corn maiden has a picture jasper inlaid face. We know that both maidens are single thanks to the whirl hairstyle. The maidens wear two coral dot pendants and share a shawl that wraps around both sides with jet inlaid dragonflies added near the base. 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.
