Sandra Suhu – Large, Elaborate Palhikwmana – SOLD

This is a large elaborate, beautifully made Palhikwmana by noted carver, Sandra Suhu. Note the complexity of the tablita which bears rain, clouds and lightning symbols. The figure is wearing a real hand-beaded necklace and a hand-painted cloth shawl over her shoulders. The featherwork on this piece is elaborate. There is a repaired crack on the left foot which is not visible when she is hung on a wall but can be seen if the bottom of the foot is examined (See the last photo). I have reduced the price accordingly. A beautiful rendition. Sandra is featured in my 2024 book, “Hopi Katsina Anomalies,” Rio Nuevo, Tucson.
