An email conversation with a collector revealed that she was putting together a directional set of Herb Halate carvings. Now we were familiar with his mountain lions
and bears but I had never seen a mole or a wolf by Herb. And even more unlikely was an eagle or a badger. So the collector asked if we could request some special
pieces. So we did and we ordered a few extra.
Don't miss this rare opportunity to add a Halate badger to your badger den. He's carved of jet with turquoise eyes and the standard Halate offering. He's a big guy at
over 3" long but should fall within range of most of Herb's other pieces. Very nice .. and signed.
BADGER: The badger represents the southern direction in protective and healing fetish set. He is most often associated with the color red and is believed to have knowledge of healing roots and herbs. Characteristics associated with bagders include tenaciousness, passion, control, persistence and earthiness.
