$ 1,100.00

Dextra Quotskuyva is certainly one of the great innovators among Hopi-Tewa potters.  Her work began with more classic imagery and then has evolved over the years to more unique and stylized designs. This bowl is a collaborative piece with her grandson Lowel Chereposy.  Lowel is a son of Hisi Quotskuyva Nampeyo.  The bowl was made by Lowel and painted by Dextra.  The design is a very tightly painted bird pattern.  Note how the bird head is to the left and the bird tail is to the right! It is signed on the bottom by both artists. It is in very good condition with no chips, cracks, restoration or repair.
