Mimbres pottery is the most sought after of all American prehistoric pottery due to the sophisticated designs attained in some of their work. This bowl, from the famous Red Ellison collection, measures 9” by 4.5”, exhibits a wonderful bold geometric design in the center (highly unusual) and a male and female deer opposite each other. The artwork, against a white background, is excellent and the balance of design is near perfect. Condition is excellent. Virtually all Mimbres bowls have a circular “kill hole” in the bottom as in this bowl. The before photos show the bowl as it was originally glued by Red Ellison several decades ago. I recently had the bowl disassembled, glued again in a tight manner, and a couple of tiny spots no bigger than a green pea touched up. THIS BOWL OFFERS AN EXCEPTIONAL VALUE IN TODAY’S MARKET WHICH CLAMORS FOR GREAT PICTURE BOWLS. 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. |
