The vase measures 10 3/4" tall x 7 1/2" the width at the 2 top rims x 7 3/4" wide at the center x 3 1/2" at the base and weighs approximately 4lb 2oz. The base is unmarked except for a faint 3.99 hand written, possibly an original price.
The vase features a wonderful rare large bulbous wedding vase form. Hand coiled and then scraped, the vase has great slight texture throughout from the hand crafted process along with slight variations. You see throughout slight horizontal lines in the bulbous area and vertical lines in the two necks from the hand scraped process. Dating from the early 1900's a wonderful example of early 20th century Santa Clara Pueblo Pottery.
