<p>[QUOTE=&quot;KikoBlueEyes, post: 943548, member: 8363&quot;]This is a small (3 1/2 inch tall) pot by Zora Silas, who signed one piece I found on the web as &quot;1st Mesa Hopi.&quot;&nbsp; While the Silas Family has many famous potters, I don&#039;t know if she is related.&nbsp; The piece is very well done though, which shows some training.&nbsp; The only other information I found was she threw pots in Polacea and Palanca Arizona.&nbsp; The pot shows some age as there are wear marks like the faded signature, so I was wondering if any of you has an idea when she worked.&nbsp; Also another piece I found of hers was small.&nbsp; Is this a style or did this have a purpose?&nbsp; I love the heavy, smooth feel of this little piece and the intention of the design, but I don&#039;t know what the elements mean. Any help will be most appreciated.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]203281[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]203282[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]203283[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]203284[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]203285[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
