Vintage Seed Beaded eagle dancer/kachina/ medicine man lucky charm with leather.
Hand Made by Zuni artist
This is a great representation of Native American Art and Culture. The Zuni Artist creates a Form out of Wood or Pillow. Then the Artist applies Beads over the form using the Peyote Stitch. This is a Continuous Stitch which results in Beautiful Patterns and Designs. The Beaded Eagle Dancer represents a Zuni Warrior performing the Eagle Dance. This Beaded Eagle Dancer Doll cannot Stand which indicates that it was probably made in the 60's or after. This is a Museum Quality Beaded Eagle Dancer Doll. This would be a wonderful addition to a Native American Collection.

Beautiful woven beads create this well illustrated eagle dancer. His wings and garments are built-up in layers despite his diminutive size and although I don't know how he was originally displayed I can picture him dangling from a rear-view mirror in the car of a loved one or even your own (good luck is always welcome).
