Anasazi Mimbers Double Scorpion Bowl Replica

The prehistoric Mimbres Culture was related to the Anasazi Tribe, although because of their geographic isolation Mimbres Art took a divergent tangent from the Anasazi. A legacy of small to medium sized ceramic bowls which depicted the natural world were left behind. This reproduction bowl is rendered with the images of scorpions upon its interior surface. The scorpion was a common motif in Mimbres artwork, and several renditions of this theme have been unearthed from their abandoned ruins. Why the Mimbres left and where they went is open to conjecture as no written records were left. The Mimbres Culture spanned from circa 200 to 1150 A.D. where they resided in the southwest deserts of America. Our vessels are handmade and painted with homemade brushes of hair or yucca. A dirt pit firing of juniper wood renders rich fire clouds and a smoky patina upon the bowl's surface.
