ANASAZI PINEDALE B/W (C. 1250AD) OLLA W/ ANIMAL IMAGES

Catalogue: Archives: Regional Art: Americas: American Indian: Pre 1492   item# 297038 (stock# Z-102)

ANASAZI PINEDALE B/W (C. 1250AD) OLLA W/ ANIMAL IMAGES

This Pinedale black and white olla, measuring 9”+, has two wonderful images of mountain lions on the rim, something virtually never seen during this period of prehistoric pottery production. The olla is broken and glued with about 8% restoration, a tiny bit affecting only a portion of the tail of one mountain lion. I rarely will handle an item with restoration unless it has significant rarity…, which this one does. This is a nice example for the collector that collects life forms or the out-of-the-ordinary examples.

This is a beautiful and striking Four Mile Polychrome bowl assembled from just three pieces; a small chip on the rim. The bowl measures 9.25” in diameter and 3.25” deep and exhibits very strong bold paint that is ALL original. There is no restoration of any type. The image is intriguing as that of an abstract animal with four obvious legs and feet. This bowl sold in the 1980s to a prominent Aspen Colorado collector for $7,500.00…. I recently purchased this as part of a small group of items and I am able to offer it at a very aggressive and fair price. This is one that should not last long!

Completely original jewelry items from the Anasazi period are virtually never seen. This example is composed of small jet beads and small tubes of shell strung on a cotton cord. At the end are two triangular pieces of carved shell each with two small inlaid pieces of turquoise (one of four missing). The previous owner purchased this piece over 20 years ago. Length is a little over 11.5 inches….an opportunity for the collector that demands only the very best.
