This small Hopi pottery tile is designed with a moth typical of that used by Hopi potter Grace Chapella, however, it is not signed so we do not attribute it to any specific potter.  It has a pair of holes at the top to facilitate wearing it as a pendant or hanging it on a wall.

 

Condition: very good condition
