Zuni Carved Mountain Lion Fetish by Thelma Sheche

Beautiful traditional or old style mountain lion carved from Picasso marble with turquoise eyes and an offering bundle. These bundles are meant as a gift offering to the animal spirit. The bundles provide the animal spirit with energy, enhancing its powers and allowing its prayers to be heard more easily. This piece was carved by Zuni artist Thelma Sheche. Guardian of the North...the mountain lion symbolizes personal power, resourcefulness, leadership, intuition and loyalty.
