Hi All, I know this is a "pottery" forum, but I hope this is appropriate to ask here, since "pottery" (wooden??) is involved.

I acquired a wooden bowl which appears to be Native American.

What confuses me is that the bottom of the bowl says "San Idelfso Pueblo Pottery" and below that is the name "Sal Loverde '54 (or '94", can't be sure of the date.

The bowl is 5 3/4" in diameter and 2" tall.

You can two views of the item at:

Any information about this piece would be appreciated.

Many thanks,

Jim
