Spurlin Island Chief Scorpion Bowl

aka. Los Angeles Islander Island Chief Scorpion Bowl, Los Angeles Islander Husband Killer Scorpion Bowl

*Spotted one on eBay with a glaze like mine went for $327 on July 23, 2022 at https://www.ebay.com/itm/195222014046?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2047675.l2557&autorefresh=true&nma=true&si=iWpKt0CZs8NY86qFURBWvQqjxsY%253D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc

This auction must not have gone through or the buyer didn't pay because it was soon re-listed to end on July 30th, at which time it sold for $242.50, at https://www.ebay.com/itm/195238569688?mkpid=0&emsid=e11010.m1951.l7534&mkcid=7&ch=osgood&euid=e3399f61a907408b965a9be422820c23&bu=43458458651&ut=RU&exe=101967&ext=239905&osub=-1%7E1&crd=20220729205611&segname=11010&nma=true&si=YqAo%252Ba9e%252BcBb0yKZfxiJZzuBoec%253D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557.

*A separate auction on eBay with a glaze like mine went for $222.50 on July 29th, 2022 and it was listed weird under Home & Garden at https://www.ebay.com/itm/363918205719?mkpid=0&emsid=e11010.m1951.l7534&mkcid=7&ch=osgood&euid=608d6794d033470bb0fe2ac99d98b2b8&bu=43458458651&ut=RU&exe=101967&ext=239905&osub=-1%7E1&crd=20220729112103&segname=11010&nma=true&si=YqAo%252Ba9e%252BcBb0yKZfxiJZzuBoec%253D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557

Distinguishing Characteristics

This glaze is very speckled and not what I think of as the typical yellow and rust Spurlin glaze but I have seen other examples with this same glaze.

Spurlin Island Chief Scorpion Bowl

aka Los Angeles Islander Island Chief Scorpion Bowl, Los Angeles Islander Husband Killer Scorpion Bowl in 2 collections

This bowl is held by three Tikis with pointed heads. It was used at the Los Angeles Islander. The glaze is a muddy brown with yellow highlights that was used on several Spurlin pieces and is quite unique.
