12 1/4" w x 10 7/8" w x 5 1/2" d

It would originally have had four small wicker sling loops for a narrow cord--one can see on the sides

and the carving very simple

A little crazing to the glaze

Small Hand-painted Black on Cream Southwest Pueblo Native American Pot carved man in tree 12 1/4" w x 10I believe this small Pueblo pot is likely Santo Domingo, based on the color and nature of the bold black on cream pattern decoration and what gorgeous pattern it is. I also think it is a fairly old one, which remains in very good condition, with a little minor hairline crack that does not go through and one tiny nick to the lip. Turning it over reveals blackening from firing on one side. To my eye a very beautiful, satisfying thing. 4 1 2" d x 3 1 4"
