$ 375.00

This bowl by Camilio Tafoya is from 1974.  It is fully polished and has been fired black-and-red.  This distinctive coloration is one that was only used by Camilio and his children Joseph Lonewolf and Grace Medicine Flower.  It was achieved during the firing.  The design on the front is etched into the clay and it is a traditional Pueblo Buffalo Dancer.  The contrast of the black and red is very striking on this piece.  It is signed on the bottom “Camilio Sunflower Tafoya”. It is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks, restoration or repair.
