Cochiti Fetish Carvings
Pueblo people have long carved and used stone fetishes in ceremonies. Although the Zuni are best known for these, the carvings of other Pueblo people are equally authentic and collectible, if not as readily available. These Cochiti carvings are created of locally found native stones.
