    Old Lady Nampeyo of Hano (186-1942) - Hopi Polychrome Jar
    c. 1900s / 3" x 6"
    This piece is in good condition. There are fire clouds, as well as surface wear and a crack to the inside of the base.
    Acquired from a private collection.
    The "old lady Nampeyo of Hano," as she was referred to, is considered the matriarch potter of the Hopi pueblo. She developed her own style based on the traditional Sityakti designs.
    Please reference item P2185.
    Hopi pottery colorings are created by a combination of the natural iron rich clay and the pit firing technique. The tonal yellow to dark orange surface of Hopi pottery distinguishes it from that of the other Pueblos.
