Delores Juanico Acoma Poly Chrome Olla 2017, #1284-Sold nagaland_necklace Some background on Navajo useDelores Juanico Acoma Poly Chrome Olla 2017, #1284 Discription: #1284 Delores Juanico Acoma Poly Chrome Olla 2017, This piece is very typical of Acoma water jars w its rainbows, clouds & parrots, but uncommonly has only the dark red. This lady distinctly shows the eyes of the rain gods for they know where the rain is needed. This dates to 1880. To me it looks like shes specifying a type of cactus plant w the berries in maybe their ripened time.
