Ushe appears with the Koyemsi or Mudhead Kachinas in the early spring ceremonial dances at Hano. He carries a roll of Piki bread which has a piece of cholla cactus inside. As he dances, the people in the audience try to take a piece of the Piki bread without pricking their fingers. |

This ornament is a bright image of the Ushe Kachina that will make a most enchanting Christmas ornament. He is about 2-1/2 inches tall and can be used as a birthday candle holder as well as a Christmas ornament. It is made of earthenware clay, hand painted and glazed, and kiln fired for strength. It comes packaged with a card describing the Ushe Kachina and a note about Kachinas, all in a plastic bag.
