Sylvia Naha (1951–1999),  was a renowned Hopi-Tewa potter from a legendary family of artists. She was the daughter of Helen Naha (the original Feather Woman) and granddaughter of Paqua Naha (the original Frog Woman). After her mother's passing, Sylvia inherited the "Feather Woman" title and signed her pieces with a feather hallmark plus an "S" to distinguish them.

Her pottery, including seed jars, features traditional hand-coiled construction, stone polishing, and painting with natural pigments (often black bee-weed and red/orange clay slips on a white-slipped base). She drew inspiration from ancient Hopi designs, like those from Awatovi ruins, and blended them with her moth
