Description: Preston Monongye (Native American, 1927-1987) was a leader in the “New Indian Jewelry” movement of the 1960s and 1970s. Born in 1927, in Los Angeles he was abandoned at Hopi at age seven and adopted by a prominent Hopi family. With 700 awards Preston Monongye is recognized as one of the most talented Native American artists. This is an early Santo Domingo Preston Monongye handmade & hand signed wooden framed 3D Sunface design ceramic wall plaque. It is handmade and signed by legendary Native American silversmith Preston Monongye. Also dated 1969. This piece is over 50 years with some wear so see pictures for condition. Extremely hard to find Monongye pieces like this. I added plenty of pictures for you to see. Additional measurements and signature are in the pictures. Take advantage of owning a highly collectible Native treasure piece. Hard to set a price on a piece like this. Since I’m not too familiar with his artwork I’ll set a low buy it now price of $895. Thats less than what one of his rings would sell for. Plus I’ve seen his lithographs sell for more than that. This piece will make an excellent addition to any Native American collection. I will ship this item out the following business day after payment is made. Thanks for looking. Also : ** believe it’s made of ceramic or clay, not certain. It’s quite heavy**
