Rare Navajo Pottery Mudhead by Elizabeth Abeyta
Rare Native American Navajo Pottery Mudhead by Elizabeth Abeyta (Rohrscheib) (1955-2006) Nah-Glee-eh-Bah, measures 8''H, embellished with a bundle of small twigs, feathers, and leather, FYI: ''Abeyta's clay sculpture was an intimate expression of her Navajo Heritage. Her sculptures were considered magical, without the boundaries of traditional Native American culture. At the same time, she created and explored the cultural mythology of Native Americans. She was best known for her flowing Navajo women, with elaborate ornamentation, and her naughty versions of Koshari's.''
