Blue & Beige Artistic Vase, Native American pottery, artist signature "Atiwaha"

This vase appears to be a piece of Native American pottery, likely from the Southwest region of the United States. The shape, design, and especially the signature on the base strongly resemble the style of Santa Clara Pueblo or Hopi pottery, both known for their traditi nal forms and intrica. designs.  The signature on the bottom is a key clue. It appears to be hand-etched and could read something like Atiwaha or a similarly styled Native American name. This style of etching is common among Pueblo potters, who often sign their pieces in cursive or stylized script. 8”T x 4”W  Elegant vase with a unique blue and beige design. Features artistic patterns and a modern shape. Please note in the last photo there’s a tiny chip in the inside of the lip of the vase.
