Native American Made Hummingbird Dancer Katsina Doll

Description

Native American Made Hummingbird Dancer Katsina Doll by Sammie Walker (Navajo-Hopi)

The Hummingbird Kachina is a brilliant impersonator during winter and spring dances. The Kachina bobs and calls like a bird while it moves with great speed. He may also appear as a runner because he moves fast enough to catch an individual and whip him with his decorative staff. The action is wonderful and the carving, painting and details are very accurate.
