Jet Mountain Lion by Herbert Halate

$ 120.00

A softly rounded abstract jet mountain lion carved by Herbert Halate in his unique style with good contrasting turquoise inlaid eyes and side bundle featuring a long triangular shaped abstract turquoise arrowhead. The tail is carved in the traditional Zuni style wrapping lyrically over the lion's back - ending up right behind the offering bundle. This guy expresses the beauty and lyricism that these big creatures embody. 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.
