Turquoise Maiden by Kateri Sanchez

A blue/green turquoise maiden with a grayish black matrix, a mother-or-pearl inlaid face and jet features carved by Kateri Sanchez. The maiden wears a tablita style headdress with a corn stalk incised on both sides that are then inlaid with jet pigment. The maiden wears a coral dot pendant as well as a coral dot inlaid sash. There is a bit of a pyritic sparkle on the back side along with one jet inlaid dragonfly and three star bursts. Maidens symbolize abundance, fertility and feminine energy.
