This is a highly polished bowl by Cavan Gonzales. He is a descendant of Maria Martinez, through her son Adam Martinez.  This bowl is highly polished and fired black. The rim and a central medallion have been re-heated to make them “black and sienna”.  There is a single inset piece of turquoise in the center of the sienna medallion.  It is signed on the bottom in the clay, “Cavan Gonzales, Eagle Tail”.  It is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks, restoration, or repair.
