This remarkable bronze bust encapsulates the essence of a Native American warrior chief with exceptional attention to detail. The chief’s commanding gaze emanates a profound sense of unwavering determination and spiritual fortitude. His hair, adorned with intricate braids tightly bound with strips of deer hide, flows gracefully, further accentuating his regal presence. A long feather adorns the back of his head, enhancing the overall aura of majesty and authority. The bone breastplate worn by the chief serves as a testament to his opulence and esteemed status as a warrior, occasionally worn even in battle.

While primarily intended as a decorative or ceremonial artifact, these breastplates were, on occasion, donned during combat. The sculpture meticulously follows the age-old technique of lost-wax casting, ensuring that every delicate facet of the chief’s face and hair is faithfully reproduced. A rich brown patina finish has been applied to preserve the sculpture’s enduring beauty, making it a cherished heirloom to be passed down through generations. Mounted on a sleek black marble base for stability and elegance, this sculpture is adorned with the artist’s signature, Fisher, signifying its authenticity and value as an exceptional addition to any collection.
