Wolf Kachina Doll by Rosita C. — Hand-Carved, Fur & Leather, Signed Navajo-Style
This captivating Wolf Kachina doll, hand-carved and signed by artist Rosita C., reflects the dynamic energy of Navajo-style craftsmanship. Inscribed with the artist’s name and census number #113,245 on the underside, it stands as part of a recognized series of collectible figures blending Indigenous symbolism with folk artistry. Dressed in thick white faux fur and soft leather garments with hand-cut fringe, this figure exudes character through its dramatic expression—wide eyes, bared fangs, and an open mouth with a vivid red tongue. It clutches a bow and spear, evoking the hunter spirit of the wolf.
A turquoise-colored stone adorns its belt, while the carved wood base offers a sturdy display. Though not a ceremonial Hopi katsina, this doll draws clear inspiration from traditional forms and stories, making it a bold conversation piece and meaningful cultural representation.
Whether you're a collector of Native American-inspired art or seeking a distinctive Southwestern accent, this doll offers charm, presence, and a sense of tradition.
