Pipestone Bird, Roadrunner by Garrick Acque

$ 65.00

A striking pipestone roadrunner carved by Garrick Acque with turquoise inlaid eyes. The feet are carved as one simplified form allowing a sturdy base for the tail and neck to jut outwards at each end. The bird is shaped and polished, then Garrick incised decorative lines on the the bird's wings and tail - that is why the designs stand out; due to not being polished.The top knot also has incised lines on ti along with and incised mouth. A bird's ability to travel freely above the earth, migrate vast distances and occupy an astonishing array of terrestrial habitats make it a potent symbol of power and freedom. Roadrunners stand out for their speed, their desire to run rather than fly and their bravery and endurance. Their 'X' shaped footprints are used by some tribes as a sacred symbol to ward off evil.
