This stunning Native American, Acoma Pueblo bowel, will catch the attention of the well discerned eye. It is signed by award-winning renowned artist Rose Chino (1928-2000).

Beautiful black geometric designs are hand-painted painted on a traditionally hand-formed vessel. The skillfully styled black lines contrast in a mesmerizing fashion against the white background. The bowel is carefully and beautifully detailed. The vessel is quite thin showing the special pottery making skill of the artist. The bowel is slightly out of shape indicating the vessel was hand formed in the traditional coiled-clay method, not mass-produced. Circa: 1970-80.

The bowel was purchased at auction (sticker still attached) in the 1980s-1990s, and has had one owner since. The bowel has been on display in a non-smoking home in an open, yet protective display case. The vessel would be perfect for the current popular white decor/dark contrast farmhouse style, or anywhere there is a desire for texture, ethnic art, geometric symmetry, or a wish for natural earthy elements.

Rose Chino's work has been displayed at the Peabody Museum at Harvard University, Heard Museum in Phoenix, Philbrook Museum of Art in Tulsa, and in numerous private collections. She has won several awards including "most creative design."
