Kachina Katsina doll - C3627HAs usual, Brian Honyouti, from Hopi Pueblo, has presented this doll as a one-piece carving, with the hand-held items and possibly the pair of feathers on the head being added.  Brian is one of the best carvers on the reservation and has been for several decades.  This is an excellent example of his very fine carving of a doll in a smaller scale.
