Kickapoo Red and Black Miniature "Smooth/Textured" Gourd Vase by Pahponee (Kickapoo)

This Smooth/Textured miniature gourd shaped vase by award winning Kickapoo potter, Pahponee is red and black, wheel thrown, with a textured collar and is primitive fired.

Pahponee has been making pottery since the 1980s, and has won many prestigious awards for her outstanding work. Inspired by her dreams, visions and life experiences, she is always developing new ways to express herself in this malleable medium that incorporates the four elements - earth, water, wind and fire - in a profound way.  Her range of techniques and materials -- imported and locally dug clays, hand coiling and wheel throwing pots, kiln or pit firing her pieces, incising textures or designs, building them out of the surface of the pot or polishing it until it glows -- give her the freedom to produce unique pieces that reflect her dreams as well as her meticulous talents.
