This wonderful bowl is a very scarce type found in the areas surrounding Flagstaff Arizona. The name is taken from a small canyon to the east of Flagstaff which is now a National Monument, Walnut Canyon. The bowl measures 9 inches across and a very deep 6 inches; it is 100% original with no restoration or addition of paints. There is an extremely fine hairline crack which can be seen in the side photo at about 1 o’clock; it is totally insignificant but mentioned for the sake of accuracy. The slip is a thin white and the vegetal paint is dark and consistent throughout the bowl. Nice examples of Walnut Canyon bowls have become very difficult to find as is true for all of the high-end Anasazi pottery. |
