Tribal Collection Review RemarksAccording to the participants in the Acoma collection review visit June 26-27, 2017 (Events Record “Collection Review: Acoma Pueblo Review 9”): The large popouts on this bowl are caused by air bubbles in the clay. Brian Vallo says he has seen a design like this on a later Lucy Lewis pot.
