Small Black-on-black Canoe with Wood Oar [SOLD]

Tourist items such as this Southwest Indian Pottery canoe have been popular since the early 1900s and will certainly continue to be so.  Most older items like this do not bear the name of the maker as they were made to sell as curios and the maker’s name was not important.  We have had black-on-black canoes before but never had one that included a hand-carved wooden oar. 

Condition: very good condition
