Description Hopi potter applying the design-the design, of traditional Hopi symbolic figures, is applied with a crude yucca leaf brush. Working entirely freehand, the Hopi woman's innate sense of design enables her to exactly fit the complex design to the piece, regardless of its size or shape." An older woman sitting on the floor with her velvet shirt and dark wrap with green and red accents. She is wearing long white boots and her hair is in two braids. she has various pots and bowls around her. She is sitting on a red geometrically patterned rug and there is a rough white wall behind her."
