The Corn Maiden is one of the most sacred and beautiful figures in Pueblo spiritual tradition. She represents the life-giving power of corn, the foundation of Pueblo culture and sustenance, and is associated with fertility, abundance, and the nurturing of the earth. This 10-inch figure is handcrafted by Jacida and DeWayne Loley, artists from Shiprock, New Mexico, and features the graceful, feminine form and vibrant ceremonial dress that make the Corn Maiden one of the most visually stunning kachinas in any collection.
The colors in this piece are rich and deliberate, each one tied to the directions and elements of the Pueblo world. At 10 inches, the detail in the headdress and regalia is exceptional. This is a piece that carries both beauty and deep cultural meaning. Because each one is made by hand, colors and details will vary slightly, making yours one of a kind.
