    Description

    Here is a wonderful badger carving by the Zuni Master Carver, Nelson Yatsattie.  This expressive badger has lovely curves and tetures, with a good polish - shinier than in the photos.  (I'm still learning...}   He has a nicely carved face, with bright turquoise eyes, and a furrowed brow.  He's an intense, yet calm looking protector.
    I purchased the badger from the Autry Museum Gift Store in the early 2000's.  He still has the original, handwritten name tag, and is signed N.Y Zuni on the bottom of the rear paws.
    The badger is in the same, beautiful condition as when purchased.
    The badger:
    Is carved from Picasso marble.
    has inlaid, slightly domed, turquoise eyes
    is about 2  1/2" long.
    is about 1  1/8" wide.
    is about 1" tall.
    weighs about 40.3 grams.
    The carving will travel USPS First Class Package with tracking, or USPS Priority Mail, as you prefer.
    Shipping is within the USA
    Due to the current circumstances, I'm combining trips to the Post Office.  There is a 5 day handling period, but I'll do my best to ship as soon as possible.  I appreciate your patience.
    Returns are accepted.  The buyer must contact me within 14 days and the carving must be returned in the same condition as when sold.  The buyer pays for return shipping and tracking.
    I do my best to photograph carvings as accurately as possible.  I understand that images vary from device to device.
    (items look much better on my phone than on my laptop and I've learned to double-check the images!)
    If you have any questions, or would like to see an image at another view/angle, please contact me.
    Thank you for considering this wonderful Zuni badger by Mr. Yatsattie.
    All Best Wishes for Your Good Health and Happiness.
