Kachina Dolls are native american indian art as they are hand made and painted by native american artisans.
Hopi children believe in Kachinas just as our children believe in Santa Claus. In a Kachina ceremony, the children
are not supposed to recognize their father, uncle, or parent's friends who are disguised by masks and costumes.
As Santa Claus comes at a certain season, bearing gifts to the children, so certain kachinas bring to the children
kachina dolls. Hopi children enjoy a whole series of Christmas delights during the period from late December to July.
The Navajo and Hopi Indian reservations are located in the four corners region of Arizona, Nevada, Utah, and Colorado.
Each Kachina doll is a piece of art, and therefore will vary in size, color, and accenting detail.
Our Kachina dolls are hand crafted using real wood, leather, feathers, stones, shells and rabbit fur.
As a result, all requests for garment, feather, and fur colors will be taken into consideration but cannot be guaranteed.
Our Navajo Kachina Dolls are measured from head to foot only. Kneeling Kachinas will be shorter, and Navajo Kachinas
with headdresses will be taller.Hopi Kachina Dolls are measured from base to highest point on the Hopi Kachina Doll.
Some Individual kachinas are signed and numbered for authenticity.
