Chino, Marie Z. -Seedpot with Interlocking Stars (1960s)
$ 900.00
This is an intricately painted seedpot by Marie Z. Chino. Marie is famous as one of the revivalists at Acoma Pueblo, along with Lucy M. Lewis, Jessie Garcia, and a few others. This seedpot is thin-walled and painted with bee-weed (black). The piece is painted with inter locking stars. There are four sided stars that interlock with eight-sided stars. The design covers nearly the entire surface of the piece. The bowl was traditionally fired so there are some very slight color variations to the white. It is in very good condition with no chips, cracks, restoration, or repair. It is signed on the bottom, “M. Z. Chino”. It is always exciting to see a piece that is a classic of her painting style!
