I consider this bowl to be the best bowl I owned when I was collecting between 1996 and 2002. Yes, there are a lot of bowls that may cost more but none have the "presence" I feel this one has. In 2003 I sold the bowl and regretted every minute thereafter.... until I was fortunate to repurchase it in September 2005. This bowl, measuring 8.7” by 3.7”, is regarded as one of the best examples of Four Mile art extant. The bowl was discovered at the Four Mile Ruin in 1974 by Bob Skousen and is the only example recorded that exhibits the arrangement of bows and arrows on the exterior. The interior exhibits an incredible abstract image of a parrot executed in a manner that, when rotated 180 degrees, the image is virtually the same. The exterior is also remarkable – there are three sets of bows and arrows!

The bowl is in perfect condition with no restoration and all original paint. The fact that all the white paint has survived is nothing short of impossible.

A RELEASE AND DISCLOSURE, WITH PICTURE, IS PROVIDED STATING THE CONDITION, APPROXIMATE AGE AND THAT POSSESSING IT IS NOT IN VIOLATION OF ANY FEDERAL, STATE OR LOCAL LAWS.
