This bowl by Fannie Nampeyo is a wonderful shape with a wide shoulder and a very flat top.  It is this striking shape which works perfectly for the painted migration pattern which extends from the rim to the base.  Note how perfectly it is painted so that the center of the design hits right on the shoulder!  The piece was traditionally fired and there are some beautiful colorations in the clay.  The bowl was painted with native clay slips and traditionally fired.  It is in very good condition with  no  chips, cracks, restoration or repair.  It is signed on the bottom, “Fannie Nampeyo”.
