This Zuni Corn Maiden fetish carving is by Faye Quandelacy.  She is certainly one of the most famous descendants of Ellen Quandelacy and known for her very classic style of corn maidens. They are each hand carved and the horizontal eyes are indicative of her style.  This corn maiden is carved from jet, but the jet itself has a very shiny, almost metallic appearance.  One might think it is pyrite if it wasn’t so light.  The one side is carved with the corn maiden and turquoise insets for her necklace. The opposite side has a Hopi maiden with a white face and single inset turquoise. The shawl is also fully carved with swirl designs.  The piece is in excellent condition.
