Hopi Polychrome Bowl with Beautiful Blush [SOLD]

Rondina Huma has been one of the most sought after Hopi potters for over a decade now. She has been featured in many publications and her work is represented in major galleries and museums throughout the country. There is no mystery as to why she has won many awards over the years for her exquisite work. She deserves every accolade bestowed on her. Her pottery is traditional in every manner. She hand coils all her vessels and uses only vegetal and mineral paints. Traditional firing is carried out as well. 

I do not know the exact extent of her recent eye surgery or problems, but she has had problems with her sight for the past two years.  Presumably, and hopefully, she will regain full use of her sight.

This bowl is an older one from a private collection and is absolutely a jewel from a master potter.  Take a look at the large array of parallel black lines throughout the bowl and imagine the patience and experience one would have for doing such.

Condition: original condition
