This is a very unusual jar by Tonita Nampeyo.  She was a daughter of Fannie Nampeyo and a granddaughter of Nampeyo of Hano.  She was known for her traditional pottery using natural clay slips and bee-weed for the black.  This jar is coil-built, thin-walled, and painted with bee-weed (black) and a red clay slip.  The jar has a round body and a short neck.  The body of the jar has two stylized hummingbirds along with flowers.  The neck has rain designs, and the rim is polished red.  The jar was traditionally fired for the striking coloration of the blushes.  It is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks, restoration, or repair.  It is signed on the bottom, “Tonita Nampeyo”. The corn plant signifies that she is part of the Corn Clan.
