Description

P837 Hopi Bowl

Vintage Hopi bowl by deceased potter Juanita Healing. The 3” x 4” bowl has traditional polychromatic geometric designs.

The traditional patterns and designs are reminiscent of the Nampeyo era, and pay tribute to the woman who has been given credit to reviving Pueblo pottery as an art form in the last decade.

With fire clouds and imperfections, these pieces capture all that is original about traditional Hopi pottery making, and are valuable ethnographic materials.   

About the potter 

(1910-2006)

Hopi potter Juanita Healing was born ca 1910. She was the sister of Patricia Honie. Both were from the Hopi village of Sichomovi at First Mesa. Juanita married Dewey Healing, son of Annie Healing Nampeyo, oldest daughter of Nampeyo of Hano. Juanita was an exceptional artisan in making pottery and in the design. Juanita was an active potter since the 1940’s.

  Juanita was from the village of Hano at First Mesa. She relied on her pottery as a supplemental income, but maintained a traditional life in the Hopi sense.

Most of the potters on the Hopi Reservation are originally Tewa Indians from New Mexico pueblos, however, there are a few potters there who are of Hopi origin. Juanita Healing is one.
