$ 200.00

Delmar Polacca (b.1959) is a son of Thomas Polacca. He learned to make pottery from his father around 1993 and continues in a similar style with carved designs.  He introduced the “marbling” of the clay, using two different colors of Hopi clay. This seedpot is coil-built and made from two different Hopi clays to create the “marbling'” coloration.  The piece has a carved butterfly maiden as the design.  It is signed on the bottom in the clay, “Delmar Polacca”.  It is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks, restoration or repair.
