Provenance
Acquired directly from the Abuja Pottery Training Centre by Robert Osborne (Pottery Officer) circa 1974;
By direct decent;
A private collection.
Documented by Edgeler as joining the Training Centre in 1963, Asibi Ido is classed, along with the other female potters such as Ladi Kwali, Kande Ushafa, and Lami Toto, as one of the most prominent potter's of the centre. This was evident when one of her pots was presented to President Azikiwe when he visited the centre and further upon her visit to Britain in 1989 with Michael O'Brien.
