Jet Raven

Zuni carver, Herbert Halate, carved this raven for jet.  He detailed the feathers and inlaid turquoise eyes.  He gave it a turquoise offering for the bundle.

Ravens are powerfully intelligent birds that mate for life.  They have learned how to live with us in urban areas, as well as near bodies of water and forests.  Ravens feature prominently in many creation stories of Native American nations, including in the Pacific Northwest where they stole fire from the sun for humans to use.  Many people, including us, have had extraordinary experiences with ravens.

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.
