Native American Santo Domingo Hand Coiled Pot

This absolutely beautiful and most collectible small pottery bowl, from the Santo Domingo (Kewa) Pueblo, New Mexico, was acquired by us along with other items, from the estate of an English collector. Unsigned, as is the case with older pieces it is believed to date to the mid-century (c.1940-1950) and is a very collectible heritage piece, most likely made for the early tourist market of them day. We adore its hand coil form, shaped from the local clay of the area then, further hand-painted with black motifs over a cream ground. A beautiful item for any collector of Native American arts, or a special piece to gift or display. c. 1940-50s In excellent condition throughout free of damage. Light surface wear in line with age and the odd tiny flea nibble to its surface. 9.5cm diameter at widest x 6cm H It is very important to note, that all the pieces Roof + Roof sell are genuine pieces of age, each having a rich and varied past and are never sold as in new condition. With this in mind, minor blemishes, surface scratches, manufacturing flaws and a general sense of their age and history are naturally may be present....more
