Native American Navajo Red Clay Wedding Vase with Horses

The Wedding Vase is an ancient vessel that continues to play a role in traditional Pueblo wedding ceremonies. Each spout symbolizes one of the individuals to be wed, while the looped handle signifies the unity achieved through marriage. The space within the loop embodies the circle of life. During the traditional ceremony, the couple drinks nectar, prepared by the medicine man, from the spouts, symbolizing the merging of their lives. The pot serves as a representation of this ancient rite. This beautifully etched vase features horses encircling its middle. The introduction of the horse provided Native Peoples with the means to travel further and faster, becoming a vital part of their lives and family. ^

Dimensions: 7.5 inches tall
