Description: The Mimbres Culture is believed to be related to the Anasazi Tribe which went extinct in approximately circa 1150 A.D. Due to their geographic isolation Mimbres art took a divergent direction from the Anasazi. Depictions of the natural world adorn a multitude of small to medium sized ceramic bowls they left as a legacy. No one seems to know what this particular bowl represents. I've heard some say it is a frog. Others have described it as a fetus. I personally believe it is a representation of Casper the prehistoric friendly ghost. All kidding aside, your guess would be as good as any for no written records were left by this bygone culture. Starling Black studio attempts to recreate realistic looking replications of original artifacts. The bowl was homemade and painted by hand with yuca or hairbrushes. A smoky patina and fire clouds adorn its surface rendered from the wood pit fire that completed the process. If you enjoy the rawness of primitive art and have a love for archeology, then I believe you will enjoy "Casper Ghost Bowl" as reproduced in our studio in the White Mountains of Arizona. Thank you for looking.
