Source (WP:NFCC#4) I created this photograph of a Zuni fetish necklace that I own. I do not know who originally carved the fetishes or assembled the necklace, and because it does not have a carver's hallmark it is not possible to trace the person who made it. It is not possible to trace the person who carved and assembled the necklace.

Use in article (WP:NFCC#7) Zuni fetishes
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) For visual identification of the object of the article. The article as a whole is dedicated specifically to a discussion of this work. Within the article there is a large section on how Zuni fetishes were first carried in pouches by the Indigenous people who carved them or worn as necklaces for religious purposes. Then, in the mid-20th century, they began to be marketed to people outside of the tribe. At the time the necklace was made, Native American artist/carvers did not sign their work, nor place a hallmark on it. Therefore the maker is unknown and untraceable.
Not replaceable with
free media because
(WP:NFCC#1)
Any derivative work based upon the artwork would be a copyright violation, so creation of a free image is not possible.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) This image is to be used in the Zuni fetish article for educational purposes only. The article describes how within Zuni culture, fetishes can be carried on the person, usually in a pouch, or can be worn as a necklace around the neck. Non-Indigenous people or collectors of Native American arts and crafts will sometimes display (rather than wear) such necklaces. It is impossible to trace the person who originally carved the tiny fetish objects and assembled the necklace, nor the person who made the spacer beads (likely from a neighboring Puebloan tribe the Kewa people of Santo Domingo Pueblo. The image is not replaceable, the maker of the object is likely no longer alive. I was able to photograph it because I own the object.
Respect for
commercial opportunities

The use of a low resolution image of the artwork will not impact the commercial viability of the art.

Please reduce file size so it fits with in the fair-use specifications. I would do this myself, but I will not have access to a computer with Photoshop for about a week. I'd appreciate it if a bot or other editor would do so.
