$ 350.00

Emma Lewis was a daughter of noted potter Lucy M. Lewis.  This bird effigy figure is one that is inspired by the Chaco Canyon style figurative pieces.  The bird has a bowl for the “body” and the charming part is that the wings and tail are flat!  The wings are painted with simple geometric patterns.  The bowl is a wonderful revival of an ancient style with the artist’s own artistic additions!  The bird is signed on the bottom, “Emma Lewis”.  It is in very good condition with no chips, cracks, restoration or repair.
