Description

Valerie M. Milner Turquoise-Inlaid Gourd Vessel – Cross & Wing Motifs

This signed Valerie M. Milner gourd vessel features a bold central cross form accented by sweeping, wing-like elements that echo the graceful structure of a stylized dragonfly. The warm, hand-painted palette of terracotta, black, and deep russet contrasts beautifully with the natural mottling of the gourd, giving the piece a rich, organic presence.

The carved geometric pattern wraps fluidly around the rounded form, balancing symmetry and movement. This compact sculptural vessel displays beautifully from all angles and brings a striking Southwestern aesthetic to any décor or collection.

CONDITION

Good overall condition. One small turquoise stone appears absent; remaining stones are intact. Light natural surface variations present, consistent with carved and painted gourd construction.

DIMENSIONS

6.5" (height) x 4.75" diameter
