This is an exceptional bowl by Maria Martinez.  It has a round shoulder and the entire surface is highly polished, even the bottom! The bowl was made and polished by Maria Martinez and painted by her daughter-in-law Santana. It is with two sections of feathers, separated by two sections of rain and lightning designs.  The bowl was fired to a silvery black or gunmetal coloration.  It is signed on the bottom, “Marie + Santana”.  It is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks, restoration or repair but some minor surface scratches.  Definitely a classic!
