Once Known Native American Potter

This small pottery dish was probably made as a candy dish to be sold to a visitor to the Hopi villages back around 1950s or so.  It is typical of pottery items made solely for sale.  The head of the Koshari was a sure winner with tourists and the (unknown) potter was clever in adding it to the bowl.

 

Condition: excellent condition

Provenance: from a former Arizona collector of Hopi pottery
