Small Hopi Bowl, Nampeyo Family

Hopi

Circa 1920 | Clay | Item 2569

This small bowl is not signed, but it has attributes commonly found within the early, Nampeyo family and this might be by one of Nampeyo’s daughters. The bowl is painted only on the inside. The top portion has two bands each with a break at the same point. Internal to the band is a paired feather that evolves on the sides into two, square spirals.
