Veronica Poblano and Daniel Chattin
Zuni Fetish Carvings & Necklaces

Veronica Poblano is an award winning Zuni silversmith and Zuni fetish carver.
She was featured in the American Museum of Natural History (Park Ave, NYC) show
 called "Totems to Turquoise". Her jewelry toured the country with the exhibit and is in
the book of the same name. Veronica's father was Zuni legend, Leo Poblano.

Daniel Chattin is Veronica's son in law (married to Jovanna Poblano).
Daniel's carvings are widely collected. He has studied with the Quandelacy family,
 Emery Eriacho and Veronica Poblano.

I recently showed Veronica and Daniel this rare Leekya Deyuse turquoise
 fetish from the Dr. Wade Collection. It had been in a silver band since new
 (1930"s) and was intended to be be on a Necklace. We all were quite
 taken with the carving. Here are the fetishes it inspired.
