Presented today is this beautiful Hopi vintage ceramic bowl, depicting 2 highly stylized Eagles in the Sikyatki Revival Style. The piece is 7 inches across and 4 inches tall. It dates from around 1940. It is the work of M. Mahle, whom i believe is the mother of the famous Gloria Mahle. The work is beautiful, and shows a predictable amount of fading on the decoration. The piece displays a broken spirit line, a traditional motif that usually predates pottery intended for resale. There are no chips or cracks. Hopi pieces have always been wildly collectible, and this one will look great in your collection. As always, Best Regards, Rich.
