Navajo Hand Coiled Pottery Indian Pottery.

An art lovers delight. These beautiful pots are hand made by Navajo artists Kevin Williams and Jolinda Black. This is truly top of the line, hand coiled Navajo pottery. This incredible pottery has been made from natural clays found in the earth. The clay was then soaked in water until it reached a workable consistency. The clay was then worked and hand coiled. The artist then hand etched traditional designs into the walls. The pot was then wood fired and masterfully painted by hand. It is 2-3/4" tall by 3-1/2" wide. Signed on the bottom by the Navajo Indian artist as pictured.

Kevin Williams and Jolinda Black work together to create this traditional pottery. Kevin has been making pottery with his grandma and mother since he was six years old. His grandmother taught his mother and his mother passed it to him. Jolinda also makes jewelry and rugs and is currently half way through her second hand woven Wool Rug. They are both Navajo, also known as Dine', and live in Shonto, AZ.

The Dine' People are a unique group of people still living the traditional life with many oral stories passed down to the younger generation through the Dine' language. The Navajo people have returned to their original name given to them by their holy people. The Dine' land (aka Navajo reservation) on top of Oak Creek Canyon is the largest reservation established for the Dine', covering about 25,000 sq. miles of land, which is located in the Southwest in parts of Arizona, Utah, New Mexico, and Colorado. The Dine' People believe they live within the Four Sacred Mountains.
