An Effigy Pot is a functional Southwestern Item with a Human or Animal design. Made in the likeness of something or someone; Effigy Pots often also have symbolic purposes and may be considered magical, religious or ceremonial. This Effigy Pot by Rowena Kallestwa is made from Natural Clay, which lends a sturdy, thick composition. The smooth clay is vastly painted in its entirety in a regular pattern to replicate the Owl's feathers. Large eyes give the Owl a charming, friendly character. The Owl also holds aloft a child who takes a perfect, miniature likeness. Cute! Dimensions: 3 1/2" H x 3 1/8" W.
