Description

  • This is a beautiful Navajo Clay Pot. The pottery is all handcrafted design with significant etching highlighting this beautiful piece. This work of art is signed by the Navajo artist Dewayne Eskeets and is signed Navajo.

  • This piece measures approximately 29 inches around the widest point and is approximately 10 1/2 inches tall.

  • The Navajo did not develop the art of pottery making until very recent times. Traditional Navajo pottery was heavy and very plain, made primarily for temporary use in water and food storage. In the last several decades, the Navajo have mastered and created a beautiful tradition in artistic pottery. Using the basics of the early pieces and improving the shape, thickness, and firing methods, the Navajo still use the pine pitch to create a beautiful dark brown pottery with smoky whorls of black and red. Other Navajo innovators have adapted the thick wallled pitch covered vessel by painting them with traditional religious images and earth symbols creating unique and beautiful forms of art. Other artists have pioneered a hand etched pottery vessel using beautiful earth tones as well as pastel colors to highlight the detailed and fine hand etched designs.
