Garnet Pavatea - Old Traditional Hopi Indian Cylinder Pottery Vase Eagle Design

Description

Item Description
:
This wonderful traditional pottery vase was created by well known Hopi potter Garnet Pavatea.  It has a unique cylinder shape and has been beautifully polished.  There is a Sikyatki bird design on two sides.  The cylinder stands 7 1/4" tall and 5 3/4" across.  It is signed on the bottom.  There is lots of wear to the paint.  But this vase is in overall very good condition with no chips or cracks.
Garnet Pavatea was born in 1915 in the Hopi-Tewa village of Hano on First Mesa.  She began a long and productive career of pottery making around 1946 and continued until she passed on in 1981.  Garnet perfected a style all her own, drawing many design elements from ancient Sikyatki pottery shards.  During her lifetime Garnet entered more than 400 pieces for judging in the Museum of Northern Arizona's Hopi Artist Exhibition.  She won an amazing total of 139 ribbons.  Her pieces have long been a favorite among collectors of Hopi pottery.
