- Lot Description
Native American, Southwestern United States, Four Corners region, New Mexico, Chaco Canyon area, Pueblo I/II (Anasazi) period, ca. 900 to 1030 CE. A magnificent, massive pottery bowl presenting with a flat, circular base, a bulbous body, a narrow neck, and an annular rim. A pair of rectangular, applied handles flanks the voluminous body of this remarkable vessel. The top half of the jar is beautifully adorned with black-painted triangular spirals on a light grey ground, as a black horizontal band coats the rim with a series of vertical diagonal striations adorning the neck. Pottery played an important role in Anasazi culture and included both utilitarian and decorative pieces that could be traded with neighboring communities for food or other goods. Anasazi pottery was made by hand coiling clay, then smoothing the surface and painting with designs before firing. This petite pitcher is a lovely example created via this technique! Size: 14.5" in diameter x 14" H (36.8 cm x 35.6 cm)
The Red Mesa Black-on-White pottery style seen here was most famously excavated at the great Anasazi city of Chaco Canyon.
