$ 350.00

Diana Tahbo was known for her tightly painted pottery and especially her beautiful miniatures.  This is an unusual piece as it is made with the red Hopi clay.  The design is a classic eagle with the tail to one side and the head to the other (the pointed end).  It is a classic style of Sikyatki design revived by Nampeyo of Hano.  Here Dianna has used it on half the bowl. The entire piece is fully polished, including the inside!  The bowl is from 1996 and it is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks, restoration or repair.  It is signed on the bottom “Dianna Tahbo”.
