This amazing miniature bowl by Nancy Youngblood is from 1982.  While it is small, it is very deeply carved into the clay.  The bowl has 26 VERY deeply carved feathers around the neck of the piece.  Around the sides are 16 “walking bear paws”.  The walking bear paw design is one that was often used by Nancy’s grandmother, Margaret Tafoya.  The bowl is fully polished and fired a glassy black.  It is in excellent condition, with no chips, cracks, restoration or repair.  It is signed on the bottom in the clay, “Nancy Youngblood Cutler”.
