Zia Bowl Circa 1920

Zia Pueblo

Circa 1920 | Clay | Item 2349

This larger Zia bowl shows good signs of wear. The side has the initials R.S. written which we see fairly often with bowls used within a group to make sure the owner gets it back. Here we see a repetitive design of meandering triangles with tails all interconnected. Within the center of each coupling are two, bold, red dots. The inside is a deep red and matches the red on the underbody.

Dimensions 5 1/2" tall, 9 1/2" diameter
Condition Very good with aged wear to the surface
