Stewart A. is a kachina carver (likely Hopi or associated with Pueblo traditions) who produced various katsina dolls, including examples like Cow Waka (Buffalo) and others sold through Native American art dealers and auctions. Pieces by this artist are typically detailed, traditional in style, and appear in vintage or used condition on markets like eBay or specialty sites.
The Long Hair Katsina is associated with bringing gentle, nourishing rain, clouds, fertility, and positive messages—encouraging a full, joyful life. It originates from Zuni influences but is widely danced and represented in Hopi ceremonies across the mesas, often appearing in groups as a singer of sweet songs.
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.
