"Mu:Shiwi" suggests it's a Zuni style owl which is complimented by the designs the owl is wearing. Every square inch of this work is colorful, interesting and pleasing to the eye. A wide-eyed expression reminds us that an owl can see what others cannot. Many Zuni homes have a pottery Night Grandfather Owl watching over them. About 8 1/2" tall, 6 1/2" wide and 4 5/8" deep. A collectible piece that's signed by the artist with a corn motif. Please click here to read about wonderful Zuni pottery.
