Toni Roller is known for her classic shapes and exquisite stone-polished pottery.  A daughter of Margaret Tafoya, Toni has developed her own distinctive style of pottery.  This bowl has a wide, sloping shoulder.   It is fully polished and has four bear paws incised into the surface. The bear paw is a symbol of good luck where a bear leads the Pueblo story to water during a drought.  It was made in 1989 and it is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks, restoration, or repair.  It is signed on the bottom in the clay, “Toni Roller”.
