Le-men-tino

The marble’s swirling patterns—cool greys, soft whites, and hints of smoky black—flow across the rabbit’s body like mist rolling over a quiet desert landscape. Its form is smooth and gently rounded, capturing the rabbit’s quiet alertness and subtle energy. Its eyes are inlaid with turquoise, small but vivid, glowing with blue intensity. The turquoise adds a striking contrast to the monochrome marble, giving the rabbit a touch of liveliness and spiritual significance. In Native traditions, turquoise often symbolizes protection, healing, and connection to the sky and water, giving the rabbit an added layer of meaning. Symbolically, the rabbit represents fertility, intuition, and quickness of spirit, and this carving reflects those qualities—graceful, grounded, and quietly powerful. The combination of Picasso marble’s earthy complexity and turquoise’s spiritual brightness makes this piece both beautiful and meaningful, a gentle tribute to nature and tradition.

Rabbit (Okshik’o): is a prey animal. Small and defenseless, it depends on its reflexes and keen senses for survival. Rabbit reminds us to acknowledge our fears, for if we don't, they can paralyze and dictate our behavior.
