New Carvings by Salvador Romero

We have just posted a number of new carvings by Cochiti carver, Salvador Romero. It is some of his best work ever. Several are combination carvings with adult animals and juveniles, which should appeal to buyers who have families of their own.

Here are some photos:

And there are more at ZuniLink.

Twenty+ years with Salvador Romero, Cochiti carver

We opened our physical gallery on Sanibel Island 22 years ago this month, after 10 years of trading in Tribal Art in Chicago. One of the first Native American artists we represented was Salvador Romero of Cochiti Pueblo. On more than one occasion he visited the gallery to demonstrate his skills. 


Around 2006, we closed the store and moved our entire ZuniLink, Native American jewelry, Native American Pueblo Pottery other operations online. Salvador and his brother, Wilson Romero, and his nephew-in-law, Lionel Sanchez, have been carving for us ever since. While Sal has had others selling his work, which we think is great for all concerned, we are proud to be associated with his early days and the growth of his popularity. 


In honor of this anniversary, and as a thank you to all who have given us their business, we are offering every carving by Sal, Wilson and Lionel in our inventory at 25% off the listed price. Look at these directory pages to see what is available.

NEW Salvador Romero Cochiti Carvings at Zuni Link

Owners William & Susanne Waites have just added a dozen new fetish carvings by Cochiti carver, Salvador Romero.

Salvador Romero is a carver of immense talent and sensitivity and very little time to carve, given his other pueblo duties. So we always consider ourselves privileged when new works come in.

ZuniLink is one of just three galleries, to our knowledge, that carry Salvador's pieces. Here are some samples of the latest.

A pair of wolves in pueblo found stone.A pair of bears in pueblo found stone.A badger in pueblo found stone.

A hawk in pueblo found stone.

Unlike Zuni carvers, who work in more formal stones such as turquoise, lapis. marble and Labradorite, Salvador's carvings come from stones he finds on the Cochiti Pueblo grounds as he walks with his dog. The animal emerges from the carving as a result of Salvador's vision as to what exists inside it. You're invited to visit Salvador's pages at ZuniLink to see and learn more.

Thank you.
