Black Marble Mountain Lion by Loren Tsalabutie

$ 300.00

A black marble moutain lion with turquoise inlaid eyes carved by Loren Tsalabutie with two gray veins located on the left front leg. Loren has carved the legs as two simplified forms and he added a simple offering bundle to the top of the lion's back with sinew featuring a spiny oyster arrowhead topped with two apple coral beads surrounding one turquoise bead. For the Zuni, the lion represents the guardian of the north - he is the master hunter, revered for intelligence, prowess and strength of will. The mountain lion enjoys the prestige of being one of the most capable predators, and therefore conveys to man a spirit to refine goals, preserve, and achieve.
