This is an unusual bowl by Priscilla Namingha Nampeyo. She was a great-granddaughter of Nampeyo of Hano and granddaughter of Annie Healing, She was also a sister of Dextra Quotskuyva Nampeyo. Priscilla was the matriarch of a family of renowned potters, including Rachel, Bonnie, Nyla, and Jean Sahmie. Priscilla began making pottery when she was only seven years old, under the guidance of Nampeyo of Hano. This bowl is thin-walled and painted with the classic migration pattern. The bowl has a long, extended handle. The piece has thinly painted lines. It was traditionally fired and so it has blushes across the surface. It is signed on the bottom “Priscilla Namingha Nampeyo”. It is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks, restoration, or repair. It was originally purchased from Priscilla in 1971.
