This "anatomically correct" bull bison was carved from turquoise by the husband and wife team of Lavies and Daisy Natewa. It was purchased in 1999 from the Zuni Coop.

We both loved the animated posture (and the, ahem, attention to detail!) but we were truly sold when we saw the signature. It was unlike any Lavies or Daisy carving we had seen before or since. Known mostly for their couples fetishes, the acquisition of this single, powerful Natewa rendition of a bull bison was a no brainer. The eyes are inlaid of malachite, one being darker than the other. The yellow material you see in the (extreme) closeups is polishing wax and is not as readily apparent to the eye as it is to Dave's camera lens. Signed.
