R. Walthall (often appearing as R. B. Walthall or RB Walthall in various listings), who produced multiple kachina dolls in styles inspired by Hopi and Navajo traditions, including figures like Hoop Dancer, Mudhead, Cloud Dancer, Hilili, Deer, and others from the 1980s–2000s era.

Horse kachinas (sometimes called Kawai'i or similar in Hopi contexts) symbolize strength, speed, and endurance, often tied to themes of travel, power, or the introduction of horses to Native cultures.

Due to the fragile nature of kachina dolls, we do not guarantee they will not break during shipping. We do our best to pack them well, but due to their fragile nature and even with the best packing, small pieces can break. If you are purchasing kachina dolls, please keep this in mind.
