This is another one of those very tall very skinny dolls. The depiction is of the Tasaf or Navajo Diety kachina. I would think he dates to the 60s and measures almost 13 inches tall, not counting the feathers. I love that vibrant yellow macaw (?) feather coming up from the back of the mask. In terms of his appearance, he is right by the book. Note how beautifully his distinguishing characteristics have been represented. The tripod on top of the mask, the rainbow visor, the wonderful ears and the mask painting. All are very nice. He is beautifully carved and the painting is very pleasing. The 'additionals' really make this doll sing. On condition, it looks like the dance wand in his left hand was lost a long time ago. Other than that, he is in great shape. A visually impressive doll and a large one as well.

Please email with any questions. We are glad to provide additional photographs and information, usually within hours. Response is always slower on the last day of auctions since more emails are received.

PLEASE WAIT FOR YOUR INVOICE BEFORE PAYING. I will have invoices sent within one hour of the end of the auction.

Shipping for this item within the US is $ 14.00. Delivery confirmation is included in the shipping charge. Insurance is required for all items sold for over $ 50. I use USPS and FEDEX. I like FEDEX ground (particularly for larger packages) because it is quick, very trackable and provides automatic insurance up to $ 100. Any items sent uninsured are sent at the buyer's risk.

I am glad to ship to Europe, but shipping prices are higher, although not unreasonable, particularly with lighter weight items. Please email for a quote. Payment for overseas sales can be made only by paypal in US dollars. While we make every effort to please our international customers, overseas shipment is at the risk of the buyer. When needed, customs forms are filled out completely and accurately.

Paypal gladly accepted with payment expected within three days. We only ship to the verified paypal address-no exceptions. Checks and money orders welcome but will delay shipping until funds clear. Checks and money orders expected to arrive within 7 working days.

If you have any problems, please email me. I enjoy posting feedback for all winners in response to feedback posted for me. We work hard to make every transaction successful and always want to hear your questions or suggestions. We will gladly accept returns if the item is improperly described.
