Kachina
Dolls of Cecil Calnimptewa by Theda Bassman
Limited Edition
Signed and Numbered
(Hardcover)
As recorded in The Kachina
Dolls of Cecil Calnimptewa, by Theda Bassman "Cecil
Calnimptewa carved and sold his first Kachina doll when he was
18 years old. Since that time, he has become an innovator, teacher,
and master of the art."
"His artistry is exhibited
in the fine detail of belts, sashes, and garments as well as
musculature, the motion, and active stance of the doll. He produces
very realistic figures which have sheer aesthetic beauty and
display tremendous power." - The Kachina Dolls of Cecil
Calnimptewa
