Hearst Museum object titled Olla, accession number 2-73360, described as Polychrome ceramic olla, Kewa Pueblo made by Felipita Aguilar Garcia, ca. 1918. Dealer's description: "Santo Domingo Olla 1923. This important jar has a pencil note on its base saying it was brought in Albuquerque on February 15, 1924. Since potters don't like to fire in bad weather, the odds are it was made in 1923 and bought new by somebody who admired it enough to take great care care of it. The floral design qualifies this as Santo Domingo Polychrome rather than the geometric Kiua Polychrome. Both types have been made at Santo Domingo for more than a century. The base has a 2-1/2" wide rag-polished red band below the shoulder, typical of the period.
