Native American Kachina Dolls H-M
These Kachinas are made and signed by Navajo artists. All Native American items offered by Thunderhawk Collectables are hand made and can vary from the photos. Each of these Navajo Kachinas is individually handcrafted and handpainted. No two are alike in feathers or clothing. The Navajo Kachina has no religious significance in the Navajo culture. It is a way for the Navajo to earn a living. The Navajo Kachina makers have borrowed from many other cultures over the years. The body parts of the Navajo Kachina are machine made, the dolls are then pegged and glued together and handfinished by the Navajo.
