Navajo pottery traditionally focuses on functional vessels (e.g., pots, wedding vases), but in the 20th and 21st centuries, artists have created figurative sculptures like animal fetishes, storytellers, and human figures. Human figurines, especially sitting men, are less common in Navajo work than in Pueblo traditions (e.g., Cochiti or Jemez storyteller dolls), but they do exist as modern interpretations.
