Handcrafted earthenware pottery vessel featuring a rounded globular form with a short flared neck, decorated with simple hand-painted red geometric line motifs beneath the rim. The vessel is fitted with an aged leather carrying harness secured around the body and neck, evoking traditional Southwestern and Native American water jar forms. The pottery has an unglazed matte surface with visible hand-finishing marks and natural color variation, while the leather displays an aged patina consistent with long-term use or display. The vessel is unsigned and measures approximately 4.5 inches tall by 5 inches wide. Without a maker's mark or documented provenance, the origin cannot be definitively attributed; it is offered as a handcrafted decorative pottery vessel in the Southwestern style. Light wear consistent with age and handling is present throughout. See photos for full details.
