$ 550.00

This is a detailed water jar by Franklin Peters.  He is known for his thin-walled pottery and use of traditional Acoma imagery on his pottery. The jar is coil built with native clay and painted with bee-weed (black). The jar has four panels of design.  There are rain, cloud, and plant patterns.  Note the use of the thin lines.  There is a lot of complex design imagery for the size.  The rim of the jar has a painted “spirit line”, which is often seen on Acoma pottery.  The jar is signed on the bottom, “Franklin Peters”.
