Mother of Pearl Ram with Heartline

Andres Quandelacy carved this shimmering ram from gold lip Mother of Pearl.  The golden glow is evident on the same side as the heartline.  The detailed horns are lovely, as is the face, hooves, and tail. It has a turquoise inlaid heartline and eyes.  The Quandelacy family is world-renown for their fetish carvings, including fetish necklaces.

Size: 1.25" H x 2.675" L

Rams are associated with determination, flexibility, and agility.

Traditionally, Zuni carvings are symbolically fed cornmeal.   Each Zuni fetish comes in a box with a descriptive card and a tiny bit of corn meal to tide them over until they reach you.
