The precious carvings are small and quiet, but there are almost 100 of them, so all together, the fetish necklace becomes a powerful statement piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou'll find a beautiful array of stones on this necklace including turquoise, coral, pipestone, spiny oyster, serpentine, shell and more. Each fetish is strung on extra fine vintage olivella shell heishi from Kewa Pueblo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"968\" data-start=\"664\"\u003eThere's an almost indescribable presence to this piece — as if each of those creatures carries its own little personality. That makes sense, as Lavina Tsikewa is a master carver from a renowned line of fetish carvers. She is the daughter of David and Mary Tsikewa and the granddaughter of Teddie Weahkee.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1111\" data-start=\"970\"\u003eThis necklace comes from the ex-collection of Martha Hopkins Struever.
