Zuni Fetishes:
Zuni fetishes are an animal, bird or figure
hand carved from stone, shell, antler, wood or other natural materials.
Zuni fetishes were first carved as "hunting" fetishes. When taken
on a hunting expedition fetishes would ensure a plentiful and successful
hunt. Each fetish is believed to have a spirit within. If treated
and taken care of properly Zuni fetishes will help guide you on the right
path of life. When you purchase a Zuni Fetish or are given one it
is your responsibility to care for and treat it with the proper respect
it deserves. Fetishes are believed to feed on cornmeal, so don't
neglect to feed your fetish. "Offerings" are often attached to the
fetish by the artist, however you may make your own "offering" to your
fetish by attaching a small stone or feather adornment. An offering
to your fetish is greatly appreciated and you will be rewarded with the
healing or strength you desire. We cannot guarantee that a fetish
carving will change your life, but in our many years of experience we have
seen astonishing changes in peoples lives as a result of their belief in
the power of the fetish. Our fetishes are Zuni carved unless otherwise
noted, out of a variety of stone and shell. Fetish prices will vary
depending on detail, artist and the medium used.
Prized for their "down to earth" beauty
and spiritual renewal, fetishes have long been an important part of Native
American culture. When a fetish maker prays over his/her created
work, a mystical power is believed to be released which can assist one
in finding a solution to any present problems. All Southwestern tribes
make and use fetishes; however, the Zuni people have developed a reputation
for being skillful fetish carvers. There are six cardinal guardian
fetishes which are symbolic of the six directions. The first is a
mountain lion which represents the North. The South belongs to the
badger, the West to the bear, while the East goes to the wolf. Additionally,
the mole guards the inner earth, while the eagle protects the heavenly
regions.
