Vintage 1970s Hemis Kachina Crewel Embroidery on Burlap

This vintage Native American Kachina Crewel and embroidery yarn art is a unique and handmade framed needlepoint piece measuring 15x11.5 inches. This is a piece of vintage handmade crewel embroidery wall art featuring a Native American Kachina figure. The figure represents a Kachina (or Katsina), a spirit being in Pueblo cultures. Kachinas are believed to act as intermediaries between humans and gods, often associated with natural blessings like rain and fertile crops.

The artwork uses embroidery techniques to depict the figure's regalia and colors, which help to identify the specific spirit.

The style is often described as having a mid-century modern or psychedelic feel due to its vibrant colors and bold design. The intricate embroidery showcases a traditional Native American design, making it a beautiful and authentic piece of art. The piece is original, with no reproduction, and is sure to add a touch of cultural significance and artistry to any room or collection.

This came from a smoke free home where it sat on a wall for over 30 years.

The frame has some knicks on one side. See photos.
