The contrasting black eyes—piercing yet serene—draw you into its enigmatic gaze, inviting contemplation of metamorphosis and renewal. Adorning its back are vibrant turquoise inlaid dots, each seemingly alive with energy, echoing the tranquil blues of rippling waters. This exquisite piece is not merely a carving; it is a vessel of stories waiting to be told—a testament to transformation and resilience amid adversity. In its silent repose lies power and purpose, transcending mere aesthetic allure to capture the heartbeat of life itself in a dance between stone and soul.

Frog (Da:k'yawiyo): Toad (Dakka) Frog (Dakkya) is a sign of water. Water is life. In Zuni Pueblo, frogs often appear on prayer bowls since many of the Zuni prayers and dances ask for water in the form of rain or snow. Cleansing is also a part of Frog’s meaning as well as emotional and physical healing.
