Histroic Zia Pueblo Square Shape Chile Bowl - C3753.30
Category: Pottery | Posted by   |  Sat, Apr 30th 2016, 2:57pm
We have designated this bowl to be historic because we believe it to pre-date circa 1940.  It is unusual in a couple aspects-it  expands upward from a round shape to a square shape and it has a  wiped-on red band on the interior rim in lieu of placing such under the  decorated section on the exterior.  It is a wonderful bowl in both shape  and design.  The rim was black but the color has mostly abraded away  from use.  There are double framing lines at the rim and near the  underbody.
