This is a large figurative piece by Marie Z. Chino.  It has her classic fineline designs which create the wings. The back has small Acoma sun designs and the tail is clay and raised.  The piece is made from native clay and traditionally fired.  It is signed on the bottom.  It is in very good condition with no chips, cracks, restoration or repair.  There are some small areas of spalling.  It comes from the collection of Richard Spivey, known for his books on Maria Martinez.
