Koshare by Clarence Cleveland. This charming clown is gathering corn. 12.2" x 8.25" x 7". Clarence Cleveland married Sadie Laban (Hopi) - as a Navajo he would not traditionally carve kachina figures, but was given special permission through his marriage by the clan which allowed him to carve clowns only. He has been an active carver since the 1970's. He uses other materials than wood to create the tassels tied to his wrists and calves - as well as the fringe atop his cap, and the leather bag around his neck. He also uses rabbit fur to recreate the "hair" of the clown. Date: Location: Hopi, Arizona HWAC # 52140
