Reva Halate's father was Zuni Pueblo artist Leonard Halate (d). He started in jewelry making in the 1950's eventually taking up fetish carving around 1960. His work was well-known for a wonderful whimsical feel. Reva's siblings are carvers Herbert Halate, Marvelita Phillips and Pansy Natachu. Her nephews are artists Brandon Phillips, Peter and Steven Natachu, plus Justin Red Elk.

Reva's precious marble Rabbit fetish pendant is reversible and measures about 1" long including bale, 7/8" wide and 1/2" deep. Eyes are from turquoise inlays and ears are extra long. A cottontail is fully etched. The nice silver snake chain is not included but is available and sold separately here.
