Vintage Hopi Wedding Vase
This Vintage Hopi Wedding Vase was handmade by Alta Yesslith Tsinnijinnie. Traditionally built in coils, she scraped it smooth and shaped the speckled clay into this iconic southwest design. It was free-hand painted with a yucca leaf brush displaying a rainbird on each side. It was finished with a pit firing. It's about 9" tall and 5" at the widest. The base is signed with Alta's married name and Dine'. In very good, used condition. A cross cultural offering, this Vintage Hopi Wedding Vase would make a thoughtful wedding gift!
Alta was born in Keams Canyon, AZ and has been active since the 1960's. She is married to Navajo Dan Tsinnijinnie. She is also the sister of Perry Navasie, niece of Eloise Navasie and daughter-in-law of Joy Navasie (Frog Woman)…a long line of well-respected Hopi potters.
