Paula says - "We seldom see Lakota fetish carvings. The Zuni are most widely recognized for their animal fetish carving tradition. Lakota fetish carving is more personal, less commercialized and less represented in mainstream art markets compared to the Zuni. Delbert Charging Crow's animal fetishes are especially rare since he is no longer carving. "Here's your chance to own an authentic, hard-to-find Lakota wolf fetish!"

Delbert Charging Crow, Oglala LakotaDelbert Charging Crow grew up on Pine Ridge Reservation in Wanblee, South Dakota. After completing dental school and worked as a lab technician specializing in dentures. When he had a dream in which his grandmother, Jennie Iron Road, told him to carve a buffalo, he switched careers and began carving animal fetishes full time. Delbert says, "The Stone People have a lot to teach us if we listen to them and show them repect. If you hold your animal fetish in your hand and think about the changes you need in your surroundings and the ailments you struggle with in your body, mind and soul, your Aminal Spirit Helpers will aid you with these issues". |

What is a Medicine Bundle?
Many fetishes have a medicine bundle, offering bundle, or adornment tied onto
the animal that consists of turquoise nuggets, coral seed beads, shell heishi,
feathers and other stone pieces. The bundle may be an offering to the fetish,
to used evoke the spirit of the fetish or to increase the strength of a fetish. |
