Story Teller
The story teller doll is an integral part of Southwestern Indian culture. The
elders of the tribe pass on stories of creation, life, and death to children
who then pass the tales on to their children. In all cultures, it is the older
members who pass on traditions and values to the younger. This gourd is an
adaptation of the story teller doll.

Golden Fish Bowl
Fish are a recurring theme in Native American designs. This fish is an
adaptation of a Mimbres Indian motive.
