Description
Native American Acoma Handpainted and Tool Marked Seed Pot by Beatrice Garcia
Wonderful handpainted seed pot accented with tool marks around the opening is signed by Acoma potter Beatrice Garcia. A classic piece of Acoma pottery with the geometric painting around the top as well the body of the pot. In the fall the women would take the seeds for next Spring and place them in these pots and then stack them. These pots would be placed in the corner of their home, stacked so the bottom of one pot would seal the top of the other. This storage technique would save space and keep the rodents from ruining next years' seed crop.
