Lucy Lewis is one of the great Matriarch potters of the past century. This large seedpot is coil built and painted with bee-weed (a plant) for the black.  The design is painted on the top of the piece.  It is a star pattern in black-and white and extends out from the opening.  This seedpot is from the 1970s.   It has been native fired and has a beautiful coloration to the white clay slip.  It is signed on the bottom, “Lucy M. Lewis”.  It is in very good condition with no chips, cracks, restoration or repair.
