    Description

    Presented today is this lovely Hopi Kachina doll, depicting the rarely seen Turtle Kachina. This splendid example, carved in a very effective and traditional style, is by the talented and respected Hopi Carver, Conrad Torivio. i have closely followed this very  traditional carver's career since the very beginning, and have the pleasure of owning the very first Kachina doll he carved, when he was only 8 years old. Conrad's work is always strong and clean, very well-made and very traditional. This Turtle Kachina is an excellent example of his work, and stands 9  inches tall, and is very well-proportioned and dignified. It displays beautifully and would look great in any Kachina doll collection. The Torivio Family has for decades made Kachina dolls specifically for gifts at the ceremonial dances, so you are assured of the most traditional and accurate dolls being made today. Buy with confidence, for as you all know, if the buyer is unsatisfied for ANY reason, i will immediately return the full purchase price. He’s available today at a VERY modest price, and even better, the shipping is FREE! Thanks for looking and Best Regards, Rich
