This Micaceous Clay handmade holiday tree ornament is decorated with a traditional Mimbres design on front with a plain back. It signed by the artist.

Using this design is the ultimate compliment to Indians who existed 1,000 years ago. Bringing the prehistoric into a contemporary object is very exciting to witness.
