[QUOTE="AntiqueBytes, post: 2988805, member: 13195"]I sold that solid blackware head I posted a while back. I was going to give a conehead SNL reference but instead I said HEAVY SOLID BLACKWARE FIGURATIVE HEAD SCULPTURE PUEBLO? BIGFOOT/SASQUATCH? This is very heavy for its size at six pounds. It's seven inches tall. It's solid blackware. No signatures. It looks to be over 30 years old but I am just estimating it. No experts that I showed it to (meaning you guys) had any ideas on it. Since I know some blackware is Native American, I am thinking perhaps this is also. Blackware is common in Pueblo pottery. I cannot guarantee its origin. It is skillfully made and well-executed. It has light wear but not much. I was thinking perhaps the conehead might be from witnessing a bigfoot. It sounds odd but then someone who saw such a thing might want to make a memento of the life-changing event. end of ad copy.[/QUOTE]
