Native American Jemez Pottery Wedding Vase By Geraldine Sandia

JEMEZ POTTERY WEDDING VASE BY GERALDINE SANDIA. Jemez potter Geraldine Sandia made this gorgeous wedding vase. Geraldine was born into the Jemez Pueblo in 1950.

Geraldine began working with clay at the age of 10. She was inspired to learn and continue the long lived tradition of working with clay from her mother, Cecilia Loretto. A great addition to your Native American art or pottery collection. 4 3/4 tall x 3 1/8?

The pottery is new but hand made and painted, so there may be imperfections. The Hopi pueblos are located in Northern Arizona, atop three large mesas. On First Mesa there is a long tradition of pottery making, that was ultimately shaped by the master potter Nampeyo at the turn of the 20th century.

Nampeyo is credited with the revival of a prehistoric Hopi pottery type named Sikyatki, after an archaeological site near First Mesa. In addition to the distinct designs that Nampeyo revived, Hopi pottery is also known for it wonderful blushes. The blushes are created by a combination of the natural iron rich clay and the pit firing technique. It is the tonal yellow to dark orange surface of Hopi pottery that distinguishes it from the other Pueblos.
