Fetishism
A fetish (derived from the French fétiche; which comes from the Portuguese feitiço; and this in turn from Latin facticius, “artificial” and facere, “to make”) is an object believed to have supernatural powers, or in particular, a man-made object that has power over others. Essentially, fetishism is the emic attribution of inherent value or powers to an object.
Theoretically, fetishism is present in all religions. Power objects and substances, such as bones, fur, claws, feathers, gemstones and crystals, water from certain places, certain types of plants and wood are common fetishes in the traditions of cultures worldwide.
Fetishes were commonly used in Native American religion and practices. The bear, being the oldest known deity in the world, represented the shaman, the buffalo was the provider, the mountain lion was the warrior, and the wolf was the pathfinder.
Our custom fetishes are made individually at your request. A few examples include; Bison, Lion, Wolf, Turtle, Crow, Impala, Bear, Eagle, Coyote, Snake and Human. Available in cast or plated; gold, silver, bronze or aluminum; as well as gold or silver leaf coatings. Most are Replica, but some real skulls are available.
