    CIRCA 1910
    This is an authentic polychromed Santo Domingo Pueblo
    Native American made wood plate from the early 20th century!
    One finds pottery fairly easily, but wood plates- almost never!
    This dates to after the Santo Domingo Pueblo were contacted
    by American traders & travelers after 1880.  The influence led to
    an appearance of Santo Domingo geometric designs on wood
    as well as pottery!  Travelers of the railways ended up
    in Santo Domingo in 1910-20. Other native areas were still
    out of reach.  The Pueblo sold wares to travelers during
    this period & artisans experimented with pieces designed
    to appeal to their buyers - in this case a wood plate!
    This piece has been part of a local collector's
    Southwestern Indian Art Collection for over
    four decades and this is its first time making
    an appearance in the marketplace.
    This very rare plate is in fine vintage condition
    with amazing marks of usage, staining etc.
    The wood has cracked with age all over the
    place and it presents beautifully!
    This
    fine example
    of Santo Domingo Pueblo art makes
    a wonderful addition to your NY penthouse,
    CA atomic ranch or UK summer home!
    A Rare & Superb
    Santo Domingo
    Artifact

    Marvelous
