Native American Made Peacock Dancer Katsina Doll

This Katsina, known as the Peacock (Tawa Koyung) or Sun Turkey, is believed to have originated from the Rio Grande Pueblos. Although it rarely participates in dances, when it does, it is seen at the Plaza dances. The vibrant colors of the peacock symbolize the spectrum of the sun’s hues. This exceptional piece is crafted in a unique style that is uncommon today, with few artists creating Native American dolls in this manner. The craftsmanship is remarkable, with precise carving, painting, and intricate details.. ^
