Emery Kyasyousie (sometimes spelled Kyasyousie) is a renowned Hopi carver from the Second Mesa village of Hotevilla on the Hopi Reservation in Arizona. He specializes in traditional-style Kachina dolls, using cottonwood root (a sacred material) and natural pigments. His works are known for their fine detailing, authenticity, and spiritual depth.
Pookang Kwivi (also spelled Poo Kang Kwivi or Pookong Kwivi), known as the "Proud Warrior God" or "Proud War God." These dolls are sacred cultural artifacts in Hopi tradition, representing supernatural spirits that embody natural forces, ancestors, and moral lessons. They are not mere toys but educational tools used to teach Hopi children about their cosmology, ceremonies, and values.
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.
