Hopi Seed Jar with Eagle Tail Design by Fannie Nampeyo updated

Clearly signed by Fannie, this large seed jar features Nampeyo's well-known eagle tail feather drop with talons. The mouth is squared off with red polished clay, and the ceramic is perfectly molded, well painted, and well fired. The jar is a striking example of Nampeyo's designs being passed down to her daughter Fannie to continue the Sikyatki Revival Art Movement founded by Nampeyo in the 1880s. This jar measures 7” height and 10 ½” diameter, and is in excellent condition. Provenance: the Seymour and Harriet Koenig collection, New York. Complimentary shipping included.
