Description

Zuni Carved Rabbit Fetish by Alex Tsethlikai

This rabbit was carved from alabaster with turquoise eyes and an offering bundle by Zuni artist Alex Tsethlikai. 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. Rabbit represents gentleness, charm, and the importance of family. Rabbit is the special guardian of pregnant women bringing safe childbirth and a long life for the children.
