$ 850.00

This is a wide shoulder jar by Debbie Clashin.  She is a cousin of noted potter Mark Tahbo and a descendant of Grace Chapella.  Debbie has quickly become well known for her large-sized traditional Hopi-Tewa pottery. The jar has a round shoulder and a short neck. The piece is painted with bee-weed (black) and clay slips.  The jar has a plant design around the neck and a mountain pattern below the shoulder. Around the center of the ajr are classic Hopi-Tewa lightning, rain, and cloud designs. The jar was traditionally fired with exceptional fire clouds across the surface.   It is signed on the bottom “Debbie Clashin” and a pipe for his “Tobacco Clan”.
