<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ladybranch, post: 91639, member: 44&quot;]I have no help for you the artist, but can tell you this Kachina doll is of the Talvai Kachina AKA Silent Kachina and Morning Singer Kachina. This Kachina is depicted with a spruce frond/swag or whatever in one hand and a bell in the other. Here is a short description on it.</p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;The Talvai Kachina is also called the Silent Kachina, although it sings.&nbsp; It comes in pairs during the Bean Dance and stands to one side of the procession holding its small spruce tree and bell.&nbsp; It wears the red and white maiden’s robe, which is characteristic garb for many kachinas that appear in the early morning.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://nldesignsbythesea.com/category/kachina-dolls/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://nldesignsbythesea.com/category/kachina-dolls/" rel="nofollow">http://nldesignsbythesea.com/category/kachina-dolls/</a></p><p><a href="http://www.ancientnations.com/Gallery%20HTML/derrick_hayah_silent_warrior_2.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ancientnations.com/Gallery%20HTML/derrick_hayah_silent_warrior_2.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.ancientnations.com/Gallery HTML/derrick_hayah_silent_warrior_2.html</a></p><p><a href="http://www.ancientnations.com/Gallery%20HTML/june_05/logan_honanie_morning.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ancientnations.com/Gallery%20HTML/june_05/logan_honanie_morning.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.ancientnations.com/Gallery HTML/june_05/logan_honanie_morning.html</a></p><p><br /></p><p>--- Susan</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.minibottlelibrary.com/mbl/alpha/ski-country/indians/indian-talavai-kachina2-manx.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
