Tony Mackel Picasso Marble Roadrunner Fetish Carving

Zuni artist Tony Mackel hand-carved this striking fetish from Picasso Marble, a beautiful example of an ancient art form.

In Zuni culture, the roadrunner is a powerful fetish symbolizing speed, agility, swiftness, and the ability to outwit challenges due to the roadrunner's natural characteristics of being a quick and clever bird. Hand-carved from shell, this fetish represents Zuni culture and the Native American legacy of carving.

Roadrunner measures 3-1/2' long and 1" wide, stands 1-1/2" tall. Comes with a certificate of authenticity.
