sold out
A 9-inch tall kachina, circa 1950s, with traditional stripes and tufts on the head. With indications of wear exactly where a child would have held it in her hand. Pueblo celebrations include many variations on the “striped clown” with names such as Koshare, Sacred Clown, Chipunah, and others. When you attend a public ceremony as you might on San Geronimo Feast Day at Taos Pueblo, be repectful and give the entities of the village their own space. Play along if you are called out, it’s all part of it, you should be honored to participate.
