Nampeyo Jar, ca. 1920-1930 ; 8"h x 8.5" d; corrugated neck.
The design is a classic Nampeyo of the Paluluka or feathered serpent. She usually reserved the design for large storage jars since it needs space to expand on. This jar, likely made in about 1920-1930 by Nampeyo and likely painted by Fannie, has the misspelling of Nampeyo, which has been noted on other Nampeyo pottery where Fannie assisted her mother.
Nampeyo of Hano was a widely influential potter who lived and worked on the Hopi Reservation in Arizona. Nampeyo is regarded today as one of the finest Hopi Potters and one of the most important figures in Native American Pottery.
