Zuni fetishes are carvings made from various materials by the
Zuni people. Traditionally, fetishes served a ceremonial purpose for
their creators and they represented animals and figures that were part
of their culture. Today, as a form of Native American Art, they are
sold to collectors worldwide. With a myriad of materials like
turquoise, shell, jet, marble, serpentine, and much more, Zuni fetish
carvers are able to create carvings in a style of their own.
