Title: CERAMIC BOWL SIGNED LOPEZ
Post by: agreeneyes on January 28, 2009, 11:45:26 AM

I'VE TRIED TO RESEARCH THIS NAME AND I'M UNABLE TO FIND OUT ANY INFORMATION.  SO HERE I AM AGAIN COMING TO THE EXPERTS. 

THIS IS A QUALITY MADE CERAMIC BOWL THAT APPEARS TO BE HAND PAINTED.  ON THE BOTTOM I BELIEVE  IS THE SIGNATURE LOPEZ.  I WAS JUST WONDERING IF THIS PERSON IS WELL KNOWN?  ALSO, IF THIS BOWL WOULD HAVE ANY VALUE BEING HAND MADE AND HAND PAINTED. THE BOWL IS 7 1/4" BY 7 1/2" INCLUDING THE LIP

I was thinking handmade - Mexican...but a nagging feeling that it could even be South America due to flowers/style.

I would agree with D&b without general knowledge of the maker.  If in the southern US (Texas/New Mexico area) you could get up to $25.00.
