The large bowl, with a 4.5-inch-wide base, features a contemporary twist — an oversized yellow stylized iris reminiscent of George O'Keeffe, accentuated by black polka dots.

Virginia's artistic journey began in the 1950s, accumulating awards until shortly before her passing. Notably, she initiated the Brookside Art Annual in Kansas City, Mo., commemorated with the posthumous naming of its “Grand Award” in her honor. This unique piece bears her unmistakable “Hott” signature on the bottom.

While labeled 'New,' the handmade/hand-painted nature may reveal occasional blemishes, adding character with subtle rough spots or areas where the glaze exhibits delightful quirks.

Ideal for display on a side table or shelf, this bowl radiates charm and is a splendid addition to any art collection. Whether for special occasions or spontaneous gifting, this delicate masterpiece demands gentle care. Clean with warm soapy water, avoiding dishwashers, microwaves, and ovens. less
