Zuni carver Pete Natachu has a very distinctive style, and is always recognizable as his. This bear has a turquoise arrow and his eyes and mouth are accent with stones.
"Strings from the Heart", is an Alabaster carving by Navajo sculpture artist Rick Nez. The contrast between the polished and unpolished stone gives the piece great visual interest. The Navajo female is playing the violin and you sense the peace and harmony in her stance. The sculpture stands 18 1/2 inches including the wooden base.
