6 Inch Sunface Kachina Doll

This 6 inch Sunface Kachina is handcrafted by Jacida and DeWayne Loley, artists from Shiprock, New Mexico. The Sunface, known as Tawa in Hopi tradition, is one of the most beloved and recognized kachinas in Pueblo culture. He represents the Sun Father, a life-giving force tied to warmth, growth, and the steady rhythm of the seasons. Each doll is shaped and painted by hand, with the iconic round face rendered in traditional symbolic colors and finished with feather and textile accents that give it a warm, ceremonial presence.

At this larger size, the detail in the face, clothing, and form really comes through, showing the care and skill Jacida and DeWayne bring to every piece. Please note that due to the handcrafted nature of these dolls, height may vary slightly between 6 and 9 inches. Colors and details will also vary slightly, making yours one of a kind.
