The classic black pottery feather design jar by Maria Martinez and Popovi Da, created during the 1950s. Traditionally hand crafted with native clay by Maria, stone burnished to a high shine, then decorated with the feather design by her son Popovi Da. Together they pit fired their pottery to the deep black using wood and dried sheep dung. Dimensions are 5 1/4" tall by 7 1/2" diameter. Signed Maria + Popovi. There is some wear from handling as pictured. No cracks, chips or restoration. Inside is a small area of wax that doesn't want to come out easily, so we left it. This is a fine example of San Ildefonso Pueblo pottery by the world's most famous mother and son artists, Maria Martinez and Popovi Da. Buyer pays $30.00 for shipping and insurance. Retail price $6500.00 |
