Rare ancient native american pottery jar purchased years ago southwest US trip
For interesting glass , pottery , oil paintings , lamps , dolls and more.... The reddish color on my first few pictures is pretty accurate true redware color...... The 6 pictures in the middle had too much light....
Kinda pale and washed out..... Still THOSE paler ones show the crock all the way around 360 degrees..... I have had it in my living room for years.......... I remember that I got it in Indianapolis some 15 odd years back....... I was told the pottery was a primitive , tribal pot...... They understood it was hundreds of years old.......South west (they thought) was all they could remember and I found glaze that looks very similar to this one......... But i can not tell you who or when this was made....... It came in a doctors estate and had been collected back in the 1930 era........ I have done nothing to it.....
No repairs or even to clean it....... The jug is particularly dirty inside , but again , I have done nothing to even clean it.....Well , I brushed out a layer of dirt & dust....... You are gonna own it...... It is large , and wonderful..... I think it is rare..... And naturally I will be only too glad to add the names of whatever culture this might be....
Just send me a possibility....... And a water jar or food storage jar....... There is only the rim damage that is visible and obvious....... No hidden holes or cracks....... It is huge and a full 12 inches or more tall.......It is a full 36 inches (3 ft) when measured around the center..... It is the biggest native pot that I have ever owned...... But it may just be the red in the glaze..... It tells a piece of American history from 5 or 6 or 7 hundred years ago...... Or perhaps mexico or central america.......
There is no mark on the bottom.... I remember there was a lot of interest in this when I bought it......
And I remember I had to pay more than a few dollars to get it home....... Thank you for taking the time to search out this listing........ My family appreciates how hard it is becoming to find anything on this site.
Nancy has taken a picture of the most interesting parts on each item..... (and it never wants to work for overseas customers)...... Should the calculator not work....... As JON SENDS AN INVOICE TO YOU anyway........
Usually the post office and sometimes ups........ Since we send our things world-wide , it simply depends on where you live...... A toy or a tool....Something for the bathroom , or a children's book , whatever..... But all items will STILL BE insured by us , as we will pay for it on our end.......
And again , all packing materials , wrapping tissue , paper , bubble wrap and boxes are free...... We re-cycle almost everything anyway and my brother Jon gets about 98% or 99% of his packages delivered to the customer in perfect condition......... " having said that , UPS once broke our cast iron kitchen skillet "....... Thank you again for taking the time to visit this listing....
Best wishes and good luck in all of your searches..... I hope you liked our primitive native hand made art pottery & folk art pottery and stuff..... Perhaps as an interesting gift for a friends birthday.....(well never to soon to shop for SOME holiday)..... Tony , jon , mom, & nancy. FREE scheduling, supersized images and templates.
