Maria and Julian Martinez were very creative artists and, early in their careers, were experimental with designs and shapes. Sometimes we marvel at their creativity. This bowl has a wide-flaring rim and is much more in the vessel shape of a traditional chile bowl or small serving bowl. If it had been made at Santo Domingo Pueblo, there would be no doubt that it was meant for a chile bowl.
