"Eagle Dancer" Kachina
A finely hand-carved Hopi Eagle Dancer Kachina, signed Chavez, exemplifying traditional craftsmanship in cottonwood root. The figure features extended stylized wings, a hand-painted turquoise mask with geometric detailing, and a prominent eagle beak motif at the chest.
Detailed with natural feathers, hand-cut leather fringe, yarn rosettes, and a symbolic painted kilt, the doll reflects the ceremonial attire of the Kwahu (Eagle) spirit—revered in Hopi culture for its strength and spiritual vision.
Mounted on a circular wood base, the piece blends natural materials with bold color and expressive form. An engaging example for collectors of Native American art or ethnographic carvings.
Condition:
In good condition overall, with some surface wear and minor paint rubbing consistent with age. No losses, repairs, or structural damage observed.
Dimensions:
7 x 7.5 x 3 inches
