Featured in this lot is this 'Black and Black' Santa Clara Pueblo, polychrome pottery vessel by Petra. This pottery vessel shows iconic Santa Clara 'Black and Black' construction that implements a waving and geometric texture pattern to the outside walls of the bowl. Black pottery has been made at Santa Clara Pueblo for generations. Potters at the pueblo were making many pieces of black pottery in the late 1800s for tourists and nearby households in Santa Fe and Espanola. Santa Clara potters used a decorating method not used by other pueblos—that is they impressed a design into the wet clay, such as bear paw designs. The condition of this this pottery bowl is good with no obvious signs of damage. The measurements of this pottery bowl are 2 1/2" x 4 3/4" x 4 3/4".(30066)
