Navajo Sgraffitto Horsehair Fired Ceramic Vase

This traditionally shaped high-shouldered vase features slip-cast native clay, carved with extensive "avanyu (Pueblo Feathered Serpent)" designs scratched from a polished, horsehair reduction fired surface. The resulting pattern of design and surface horsehair carbon markings on the redware clay color is unique and very attractive. The pot is 6 7/8" tall and 6 5/8" diameter. There is a very slight firing ding (spalted off) on the inside of the rim. It is signed with the artist's name: D ARAGON Acoma Sky City, NM, but the artist is an enrolled Navajo.

If you are looking for an unusually nice piece of contemporary Navajo decorated ceramic pottery, then go no further!
