Picasso Marble Badger by Stafford Chimoni

A plump gray and brown colored Picasso marble badger carved by Stafford Chimoni with turquoise inlaid eyes. Stafford has incised fur on the badger's body as well as creating a divot like line down the center of the badger's back creating the stripe. There is a fantastic offering bundle added to the top of the badger's back with sinew featuring a gold-lip arrowhead topped with two coral beads that are in turn surrounded by three turquoise beads with pen shell heishi added last. Badger medicine bolsters one's defenses; most especially self preservation skills by focusing/guiding the spirit to be more tenacious and grounded when working towards a goal.
