Hopi Exquisite Polychrome Jar [SOLD]

Huma produces the most perfect vessel, balanced in every respect and burnished to a smooth and beautiful finish, upon which she applies a total composite design that completely conceals the base surface.  Her designs are minute or thumbnail images of Sikyatki prehistoric designs from her pueblo's ancestral village.

She has been one of the most sought after Hopi potters for over a decade now. She has been featured in many publications and her work is represented in major galleries and museums throughout the country. There is no mystery as to why Rondina has won many awards over the years for her exquisite work. She deserves every accolade bestowed on her.

Her pottery is traditional in every manner. She hand coils all her vessels and uses only vegetal and mineral paints. Traditional firing is carried out as well.  This jar is absolutely a jewel among pueblo pottery.

Condition:  The jar is new and in original condition

Provenance: from the collection of a Minnesota gentleman
