Carved Fetish Native American Indian Chief Head

Please see photos for details and measurements and thank you for your interest! The word fetish refers to a small charm or talisman carved by hand from various materials such as stone, mineral, wood, bone, antler or fossil. Fetishes have existed in one form or another all over the world in various ancient cultures since before the beginning of time.

The existence of fetishes today is reserved primarily as an expression of tribal art and beauty rather than serving the practical yet superstitious role they have in the past.
