    This beautiful black on red shallow bowl is being attributed to Annie Healing Nampeyo, who is the “matriarch” of contemporary Hopi pottery. She worked in traditional ways, coiling, slipping and painting the design with mineral paints. Annie Healing Nampeyo made polychrome pots and she is also known to have made red pots with black painted designs. Her pottery was not signed, as was the tradition at the time.

    Annie Healing Nampeyo was well recognized during her lifetime as a superior artist. Her work is in many museums and private collections. This bowl is coming from a private collection by descent and this is the first time it is being offered for sale in many, many years.
  • More Information
    Notes: This bowl is clearly made by either Nampeyo or her daughter, Annie Healing Nampeyo. Annie is especially associated with having made black on red pots but Nampeyo also made black on red pots. The shape of the final edge implies that the pot was made by Annie.
