Shalako Kachina Dolls The kachinas made in this style are the most interesting and exciting amongst the works of the Navajo and Hopi natives, so much so that they are in great demand and sought after by collectors.
Traditionally they are made from pieces of wood branches and roots with a natural curvature and the artist’s mastery lies in enhancing the raw material drawing a figure that will be painted with bright colors and designs that will make it unique.
