French collection of tribal art, the name of the collector will be communicated to the purchaser. The traditional Kachinam dolls are, for the Pueblo Native American group (Hopi, Zuni, Tewa Village, Acoma Pueblo and Laguna Pueblo), educational tools offered to children at the end of ritual festivals. Among the Hopi Indians, from the age of six, boys begin their initiation into the katchina cult rendered to the ancestors. Animating these traditions, the Kachinam dolls, particularly decorative, express themselves during traditional dances accompanying the annual festivals in favor of rain. These statuettes represent masked katchina dancers, embodying a great diversity of spirits, and their colors are associated with the cardinal points. Matte multi-colored patina, small accidents.
