Pauline Talasyousia (Setalla) (b. 1930) married Justin Navasie Setalla.  She was raised in the village of Mishongovi and learned to make pottery from her mother-in-law, Agnes Navasie, and her sister-in-law, Eunice “Fawn” Navasie.  She had ten children, including Dee Setalla, Agnes Nasonhoya, Gwen Setalla, and Stetson Setalla, who are all potters.  This is one of her canteens from the 1970’s.  It is a classic Hopi shape with a round belly.  The design is a bird pattern that is painted on the front of the piece.  The black is bee-weed, and the white and red are clay slips. The canteen is flat on the back, but it also stands vertically as in the photos.  It was traditionally fired, creating striking colorations that range from pink to white.  The canteen is in very good condition with no cracks, restoration, or repair but a small rub on the back of the opening where the rim rests when sitting horizontally.  It is signed, “Pauline S.” on the back.
