Claudia Peina Turquoise Olla Maiden Fetish Carving

Handcrafted by Zuni Pueblo fetish carver Claudia Peina, this Olla Maiden carving is a beautiful and unique piece celebrating the strength and beauty of women within our communities. Carved from turquoise with coral accents.

The pottery piece traditionally carried upon her head is a symbolic element and historic reference to the women within Pueblo communities who carried water back to the community from the river for use in daily life. Elegant and detailed, this carving connects us to an ancient art, reminds us of the importance of the natural world, and reminds us that it takes all people to build a community.

Carving measures 1-1/4" long and 2" wide, stands 2-1/4" tall. Comes with certificate of authenticity.
