Up for auction is a lot of three (3) southwest items. A Hopi-Tewa style Clay Pottery Wedding Vase from Arizona . This vase features stunning details. It has some minor scuffing. See photos for details. The vase is 12 inches tall and 8 inches at the widest point. Manufacture mark "Kopa" on the bottom. The Traditional Indian Wedding Ceremony by Margaret Guiterrez, a famous potter of Santa Clara Pueblo, New Mexico. Usually a week or two before they are married, the future husband's parents make the Wedding Vase. When the Vase has been made, the husband, along with her parents and all his relatives go to the bride's house. The bride brings out everything she will need to establish their new home together: clothing, utensils, mattress, moccasins, corn and any other homemaking essentials including her white manta wedding dress. The parents of both the bride and the groom give the young couple advice to help them have a happy and successful marriage. The Indian holy water is placed in the Wedding Vase and the Vase is turned around and given to the bride. She drinks from one side of the Vase, turns it around again and gives it to the groom, who then drinks from the opposite side of the Vase. This ceremony unites them as one. The couple will treasure the Vase throughout their married life.
The second item in this lot is a 1991 Hadley House Porcelin Ozz Franca Navajo Summer Plate # 1316. Born October 2, 1928, França (pronounced FRON-suh) grew up in Sao Paulo, Brazil, and from an early age he showed talent as an artist. He moved to Hollywood in 1946 and began doing movie illustration for Walt Disney. His projects included Lady and the Tramp and 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. Ozz saw the spirituality and quiet dignity of Native American men and women, there's a romance surrounding Native Americans that he captured in his art. Stand not included.
The last item in this lot is a SIGNED Rattlesnake Gorget Indian necklace by Thompson dated 1966. The measurement of this piece is approximately 6 by 6 1/2 inches and is suspended from a leather string.
