Natseway, Thomas – Mini Ram Effigy Bowl

Thomas Natseway is one of the most renowned miniaturists in Pueblo pottery.  Rarely does he make a piece that is over 1″ tall or wide!  This miniature is a ram or Big Horn Sheep effigy bowl. The bowl has four legs and a Big Horn Sheep head and a rounded tail.  The inside of the bowl is also fully painted in a Mimbres style with two interlocking rams.  It is a wonderfully complex piece for the size!  It is signed on the bottom, “Thomas Nasteway”.   It is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks, restoration or repair.
