Kachina dolls are gifts given in hope of future abundance and good health. They have highly significant spiritual meaning for the Hopi people, representing everything from animals to abstract concepts. The Hopi were the original Kachina doll carvers, carving each one out of a single piece of cottonwood root. The Navajo also began making their own Kachina dolls with added leather, feathers, beads and turquoise. This colorful Sunface Kachina doll is Navajo made and signed on the bottom by the artist. A truly unique, one-of-a-kind gift, this collectible will grow in value over time.
