Native American Navajo Handbuilt Handetched and Handpainted Miniature Seed Pot with Buffalo
Description
Native American Navajo Handbuilt Handetched and Handpainted Miniature Seed Pot with Buffalo by Wallace Nez
This spectacular miniature handbuilt seed pot has a highly detailed painted buffalo in a circle of very deeply etched patterns. The body of this miniature pot has three polished stars on the body. Buffalo, once the mainstay of the Plains Indians, reminds us of abundance, good medicine, and steadfast endurance. Wallace does an amazing job on these very small pieces. He is renowned for this type of detailed pottery. He digs his own clay, he fires the pots traditionally and etches and then painstakingly paints each animal. Wallace told me it takes approximately two days to make each tiny pot. Pottery ring is included, though the pot stands beautifully on its small flat bottom.
