19th C. Zuni Polychrome Olla w/ Deer Heartlines

Item Details

Description

Native American, Southwestern United States, Zuni, ca. 19th to early 20th century CE. A stunning coil-formed pottery olla vessel with a slightly concave base and walls that swell outward to a rounded shoulder, a gently sloped neck, and an undulating rim. The vessel is painted with a white-beige slip as the ground and then covered with intricate geometric and zoomorphic forms. The motifs are known as "heartline deer in house" with the deer enclosed in an arching shape. The sides also feature nested, petaled rosettes encircled by two concentric rings and a final scalloped border. The surrounding exterior and neck are then decorated with intricate scrolling foliate and as well as stylized curvilinear and geometric motifs, some further embellished with striated and crosshatch centers, all in hues of black, russet, and plum. This is a large and intact olla and choice example of the traditional form. Size: 12.5" Diameter x 11" H (31.8 cm x 27.9 cm)
