This pot is beautifully formed and coiled. It was clearly made by one of the great Hopi potters working at this time, possibly Nampeyo.
The fine crackle identifies this pot as being from the Polacca period. Please note how innovative the styling of the tableta is while the potter still maintains fundamental tradition.
