This captivating vintage fetish necklace is a testament to the enduring tradition of Zuni lapidary artistry. Strung with hand-carved animal fetishes in a variety of natural stones — including turquoise, coral, jet, shell, and serpentine — each figure represents a sacred spirit animal believed to carry protective and healing power. The necklace flows with organic rhythm, each carved figure unique in form and character that reflect generations of skilled handwork.

The piece carries the warmth of age and use, with a rich patina and natural variation in the stones that speak to its authenticity. At 34 inches, it drapes beautifully as a long statement necklace, equally at home as a collector's piece or a wearable work of art.
