Jemez Native American Pueblo Blackware Geometric Pottery Jar
This Native American Blackware Pottery Jar is an impressive piece of pottery that stands out for all the right reasons! Made by an artist from the Chinana family that hails from the Jemez pueblo, they crafted this jar by stacking hand coiled rings of clay on top of each other, and then scraping them together smooth to form the shape. They then utilize a unique firing technique, where the pottery is placed into an earthen pit and then smothered in powdered animal dung; this is what reduces the oxygen without diminishing the hear and creates the blackening of the clay. Another way this can be achieved is by "smudging", which would require the pottery to be encased in sheets of metal that is then smothered in damp manure and the residual smoke impregnates the clay with carbon. This jar is 3-1/2" x 4", and is signed Chinana Jemez on the bottom. This Jemez Native American Pueblo Blackware Geometric Pottery Jar is a perfect accent piece to any shelf!
