We acquired this Hopi vessel in a collection of a dozen candleholders from various pueblos so we have designated this as a candleholder, however, it might have some other intended purpose. At least the previous owners included it in their collection of candleholders, so we have gone along with their designation.
Condition: very good condition
Provenance: from a collection of a family in New Mexico
