    Description

    At 12-1/2" Tall! this is by far the largest Maricopa vase Ive ever come across. It's got some writing on the bottom, which I couldn't make out and a celestial pattern of small dots around it. As close as I could eyeball it, the belly measures 7" dia. The form is exquisite and the surface is smooth from burnishing and like wise has a beautiful luster to it. Simply elegant. The only decoration is at the top of the spout and around the rim. It's in superb condition and with all of these elements considered, I think it could possibly be an Ida Redbird. I know her name comes up often but this one could be it. There is no signature that's legible to my eyes.
