Natseway, Thomas – Mini Butterfly Jar with Butterfly Lid (1990s)
1"h
$ 250.00
Thomas Natseway is one of the most renowned miniaturists in Pueblo pottery. Rarely does he make a piece that is over 1″ tall or wide! This is one of those amazing pieces in both design and form that makes one realize why he is so well-recognized for miniatures. The piece has two butterflies in relief on the sides of the jar. The wings of the butterflies are the ‘legs” of the jar! The lid is a sculpted butterfly on a flower. It is definitely a very unusual piece by Thomas. It is detailed and precise. The jar is signed, “Thomas Natseway”. It is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks, restoration, or repair.
