Vintage Southwestern Terracotta Vase - Native American Geometric Polychrome Pottery
Vintage Southwestern Terracotta Vase - Native American Geometric Polychrome Pottery
Earthy and graphic, this small vintage pottery vase features a rounded terracotta-colored body, elongated neck, and flared rim decorated with hand-painted geometric motifs. Cream, black, and rusty red create a striking polychrome palette, with angular designs circling the neck and stylized geometric forms wrapping the body.
Condition
Good vintage condition with visible age and surface wear throughout. There is scattered scratching and loss to the painted/slip decoration, particularly around the lower body and rim. Small edge imperfections are visible along the mouth. No major structural breaks. Please review all photos closely for condition.
