Vintage JH Boone American Indian with Pipe Statue. Terracotta. Measures about 27.25" in height by 8.5" wide. The figure slides off a pole on the base. Very good condition.
This impressive terracotta sculpture by artist J.H. Boone is a significant example of modern Southwestern art. Standing at 27.25 inches, the figure showcases Boone's distinctive elongated style and deep, earthy glazes that emphasize natural texture. This particular piece depicts a figure in a contemplative pose holding a long traditional pipe, accented by a symbolic spiral petroglyph etched near the base.
The statue is cleverly designed to slide off a central pole attached to the heavy hexagonal base, allowing for safer transport and easier cleaning. Its substantial height and rustic aesthetic make it an ideal focal point for a desert-style home, a professional office, or a collection of Native American-themed art. The craftsmanship captures a sense of quiet strength and timelessness that is characteristic of J.H. Boone's highly collectible works.
This item is vintage, over 30 years old. While it appears to be in very good condition, there is the possibility I may have missed a minor detail. In the unlikely event I missed a major flaw I would reach out prior to sending it.
May ship UPS.
