Native American Jemez NM Handpainted Pottery Vase decor - Estate Find From the Estate of a couple that did alot of travel in the SW US in the 1980s Handpainted Feather Motif Vase with Turquoise Bead and silver feather by J. F. Gachupin a Jemez Indian Artist signed white black brown and orange Approximate measurements: about 9" x 1/3/4 across the top and 2.5 - 3" across the bottom; about 14 3/4" around the widest point, ( given round shape its hard to get an exact size) turquoise bead is about 5/8" long, silver feather is about 1 1/4 inch long. Comes with a brochure about the Artist also filled with a bag of sand. I'm leaving it in there. I dried to remove it but I didn't want to damage the vase. And maybe it is supposed to be in the vase as part of the artistry! pre-owned - no obvious imperfections, no crazing, chips or cracks, there is a small mark on the piece by the bead, there is also some residue from the non slip mat the item was sitting on, on the bottom, leave it or not, up to you. 724faaudy36 AA55
