Edaakie, Tim & Bobby Silas – Zuni Jar with Deer Medallions

10"w x 8"h

$ 450.00

Tim Edaakie and Bobby Silas work together on their pottery. Tim is Zuni while Bobby is Hopi and their pottery is created to envision historic pottery shapes and designs.  This jar is a very classic shape with a wide shoulder, a sloping neck and a slightly turned out rim.  The jar has heartline deer and flower medallions around the side.  The neck has creatively painted rain birds. The fine lines are evenly painted and add to the overall connection to the historic style.  The bottom of the jar has an indented base, which reminds one of the historic pottery and how it was worn on the head. All the various colors are from natural clay slips.  It is signed on the bottom.
