Description
Zuni Serpentine Fox Fetish by Edna Leki (1924-2003), measures 2.5''L x 1.5'', gold lipped shell arrowhead and coral/turquoise sinew tied powerpack, coral eyes, Artist Bio: Edna was born on October 5, 1924 and passed on August 13, 2003 at 78 years old. Edna was the daughter of Teddy Weahkee (d.) and the mother of Dinah Gasper, Lena Boone and Anderson Weahkee (d.). Her style follows that of her dad and family which is the ''old style'' method of fetish carving, finding a stone that has the general shape of the animal you are looking to create and using a very minimal amount of carving work other than the simple addition of an offering bundle attached with sinew to the fetish as a prayer to that animal spirit.
