    Description

    The 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 to us. This reproduction bowl is rendered with an image of a hare upon its interior surface. The hare was a common motif in Mimbres artwork and several renditions of this theme have been unearthed from their abandoned ruins. Why they left and where they went is open to conjecture as no written records were left behind. The Mimbres Culture spanned from circa 200 to 1150 A.D. where they resided in the southwest deserts of America.  Starling Black Studio in the White Mountains of Arizona attempts to reproduce realistic looking replications of original artifacts.  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. If you enjoy the rawness of primitive art, then I believe you will not be disappointed in our work. Thank you for looking.
    Please note, our replications are for display purposes only and should never be used in the preparation or serving of food.
