Nampeyo, Rayvin – 11″ Wide Jar with Double Quail Jar (1980s)
11"w x 4.5"h
$ 900.00
Rayvin Nampeyo (b. 1961) is a son of Leah Garcia Nampeyo, a grandson of Fannie Nampeyo, and a great-grandson of Nampeyo of Hano. He is a brother of James Nampeyo. This jar is a classic shape with a wide shoulder and a short neck. The jar is coil-built, thin-walled, and fully polished. It is painted with bee-weed and clay slips. The design is an unusual one with two large quail swirling around the shoulder of the jar. The feathers extend off the head and there are spiraling wings on the sides. It is delicately painted and creative jar! The jar was traditionally fired so there are slight blushes on the surface. It is signed on the bottom, “Rayvin Nampeyo” and a corn plant for Corn Clan. It is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks, restoration or repair.
