Description
Native American, Southwestern United States, New Mexico, San Ildefonso Pueblo, ca. early to mid-20th century CE. A hand-built pottery bowl with stone burnished surfaces and an attractive orange ground hue. Atop the basin is a series of black geometric forms that create a pair of abstract avian creatures with outstretched wings, curved beaks, petite eyes, and a mutual rectangular body; perhaps this is a two-headed bird rather than 2 separate creatures. Size: 8.2" L x 7.75" W x 3" H (20.8 cm x 19.7 cm x 7.6 cm)
