Small Hand-painted Black on Cream Southwest Pueblo Native American Pot carved man in tree It would originally have had

It would originally have had four small wicker sling loops for a narrow cord--one can see on the sides

but might also be nice hung with an electric candle inside to light it up

with a minor bends and dings

which feel both very much like traditional quilt designs

with prisms for the lenses

Small Hand-painted Black on Cream Southwest Pueblo Native American Pot carved man in tree It would originally have hadI believe this small Pueblo pot is likely Santo Domingo, based on the color and nature of the bold black on cream pattern decoration and what gorgeous pattern it is. I also think it is a fairly old one, which remains in very good condition, with a little minor hairline crack that does not go through and one tiny nick to the lip. Turning it over reveals blackening from firing on one side. To my eye a very beautiful, satisfying thing. 4 1 2" d x 3 1 4"
