The Makwa - Nemadji Pottery
ABOUT
This Native American Nemadji pottery has striking red and black color splashes with swirls created by the natural clay during the firing process.
Early pots were hand-thrown, but most Nemadji pottery was molded from colored or white clay, then fired and left unglazed for a creamy matte finish. The interiors of the pieces are glazed for firing, giving it a glossy and water-resistant finish when done. Various colored paints were floated on water, with a touch of vinegar added to aid in paint separation. Each individual vase thus has a unique pattern, no two can ever be the same.
DIMENTIONS
4 1/2”W x 6” H
Base Width:2 3/4”
CONDITION
In great condition, very lightly used no chips or scratches.
