This is an exceptional miniature by Autumn Borts-Medlock.  She is known for her often fanciful carved pottery and use of unique shapes.  The bowl is carved with an avanyu encircling the bowl.  The body of the avanyu is made of cloud and wave designs.  It is amazing she could carve so deep and with complex lines on a piece so small! It is signed on the bottom in the clay, “Autumn Borts”.  It is in very good condition with no chips, cracks, restoration or repair.
