Hopi canteen attributed to Nampeyo

Marcy Burns American Indian Arts LLC

This is a wonderful Hopi canteen. The quality and form of the pot as well as of that of the painted design indicates that the canteen was likely made by Nampeyo, who is considered the Matriarch of contemporary Hopi pottery. The design is known as “Sikyaki Revival” and is known to have been used by Nampeyo.

This Nampeyo canteen is very fresh to the market. It came out of a private collection that we recently purchased. The rawhide straps have been removed as they were not original to the pot.
