    I was told this pot was Navajo by an appraiser but I do not think so --Thanks for any help--it is 3 1/2" tall and in nice condition

      No, it's not Navajo. It's a Santo Domingo (now called Kewa) tourist piece, ca.1930s.

      Kewa is located between Albuquerque and Santa Fe, New Mexico, and is totally unrelated to the Navajo.

      Thanks so much ! Should I tell the appraiser he seemed so certain.
    3. CanyonRoad, 4 years ago
      No one who knows anything about southwest Native American pottery would ever mistake Kewa (Santo Domingo) pottery for Navajo pottery. It's pretty obvious this "appraiser" isn't a specialist when it comes to southwest pottery! I hope he didn't charge you for his mistaken identification.
