A very large 19th century North-Western Indian figural Carved Wood Totem Pole. This very rare Pole measures 8" in diameter and stands 7.5 feet tall. This is one of the rare historic Totem pole that survived the late 19th century ban of Totem poles. Nearly all Totem-pole-making had ceased by 1901. Carving of monumental and mortuary poles continued in some, more remote villages as late as 1905; however, as the original sites were abandoned, the poles and timber homes were left to decay and vandalism. In the 19th and early 20th centuries, before the passage of the American Indian Religious...

A sculptural hand-coiled and stone-burnished blackware pottery vessel by Adelphia Martinez of San Ildefonso Pueblo. The rounded body rises to a softly flared neck and is decorated with deeply carved relief motifs encircling the lower register. #5184 The carved imagery depicts stylized bighorn sheep (ram) heads with spiral horns alternating with arrow motifs, rendered in low relief against the lustrous black surface. In Pueblo symbolism, the bighorn sheep represents strength, endurance, and the natural world of the surrounding mountains and desert landscapes, while the arrow traditionally signifies protection, direction, and hunting skill. The pairing of these motifs creates a rhythmic narrative band around the vessel while emphasizing its sculptural form. The vessel displays the rich, reflective black surface characteristic of San Ildefonso pottery, achieved through careful stone burnishing and traditional reduction firing techniques developed in the early twentieth century by master potters including Maria Martinez. The contrast between the polished surfaces and matte carved areas adds depth and visual movement to the piece. Signed on the underside: “Adelphia / San Ildefonso / Pueblo.” About the Artist Adelphia Martinez was a potter working within the celebrated San Ildefonso Pueblo pottery...
