Description: This beautiful fetish pendants, created by the talented artist Stacey Turpen, are one-of-a-kind pieces that seamlessly blend seashell, mixed media, or stone to produce a breathtaking work of art. The fetish carving, which is small in size and emits a gentle light, is signed by the artist and comes with a certificate of authenticity issued by Stacey Turpen himself. The inspiration for these pendants are drawn from nature and the Native American culture, specifically the Navajo and Zuni tribes from New Mexico, USA. Its ultra-contemporary design and production technique, which involved intricate carving, make it a truly unique and valuable piece that will make a great addition to any art collection. Native American fetishes are hand-carved objects which represent the spirits of animals or the forces of nature. From the earliest times in North America, Indians have used fetishes in an effort to master the arbitrary and unpredictable forces beyond their control. here are a few natures and the animals they represent. Bear-strength, introspection, power of the soulBuffalo- endurance to overcome ones weaknessesTurtle- mother earth, longevityHorse- has the possession of healing powersFrog- the bringer of the rains abundance and prosperityWolf- the teacher pathfinder, on the journey of survivalEagle- divine connectionCoyote- the TricksterBeaver- symbolic of the familyCorn maiden- ensures a bountiful harvest.Snake- transmutation birth rebirth Stacey Turpen- I was born and raised on the zuni and Navajo reservations. My grandfather, being Zuni, taught me how to carve at a young age. After watching him carve through the years i have become more involved in the traditional beliefs of the fetish, while putting my own creativity into each stone. There is an animal in each stone i pick up...i just have to find it and release it from the rock. When im not at the shop, you could probably find me at the nearest lake enjoying what i do second best. Thank you for your time and Best wishes, Stacey Turpen
