Exceptional Hopi Sa'lakwmana Katsina - Circa 1900

Buffalo Barry's Indian Art

One of the most beautiful katsinam I’ve owned in 30 years. I refer to it as “statuesque” due to its large size (16″ by 9″) and its elegance. This is the much beloved female Sa’lako maiden as indicated by her white boots. I date this carving to 1900. It came from a Santa Fe gallery and before that from Janice Benjamin, retired owner of The Indian Store in Los Gatos, California. No restoration. A centerpiece to any Hopi katsina collection
