Gold-Lip Mother-of-Pearl Bird, Eagle by Jeff Shetima

$ 250.00

A mother-of-pearl eagle carved by Jeff Shetima with jet inlaid eyes mounted to a turquoise base for added stability. The eagle has inlaid the top of the eagle with a heart line composed of bits of jet, apple coral, abalone, turquoise, gold-lip and orange spiny oyster. Note: The right side of the eagle has been left rough in a portion of the yellow umber base shell. The Zuni believe the Creator made the eagle to be a teacher for mankind. The eagle is the guardian and master of the sky - revered for its power, strength and dynamic grace. The eagle has incredible vision so eagle medicine calls one to look at the comprehensive whole picture of any situation.
