Offered here is a beautiful Zuni fetish carving by Jeff Shetima. This green blue turquoise bear shows lively animation and character, with it's swiping paw and open mouth.

I bought this directly from Jeff and it has been in a display cabinet since it's purchase several years ago. (Taken out only to admire and feed!) The arrowhead is also made out of turquoise with Jeff's trad...emark inlay. The eyes are glowing, but I do not recall finding out what the stone was * They look like opal or iridescent shell...Signed  on the bottom, but hard to decipher.  Paypal accepted.
