INFO :
An examination using a store bought Blacklight revealed
the rim white plaster patches showed florescence. The rest
of the exterior and interior remained dark without detectable florescence.

INFO :
An examination of the paint using a Q-tip
soaked with ACETONE ( Nail Polish Remover ) rubbed forcefully
on the black and red paint did NOT remove either paint.
Both the exact shape, & specific design elements, are consistent
with other pottery bowls from the antiquities market generally accepted
as attributed to "Anasazi" people. Priced accordingly.
We have more
Hopi Pottery
available from our Store,
including many original works by
