Zuni artist Philbert Beyuka specializes in bolos that are styled after the Zuni Kachinas found in ceremonies. Philbert was taught by a Zuni legend, his father Edward Beyuka, and that influence shows in his work. This is an Eagle dancer that represents courage, wisdom, strength and has significant ceremonial meaning. It is a very unique figure that has eagle feathers across the back of the body and fashioned with lots of color. Philbert has used jet, shell, coral, and turquoise stones to create the fascinating bolo. The bolo has been placed on a leather cord and sterling silver tips. Jonathan's work is very collectible and Philbert makes a limited number of figures as well.
