- MATA ORTIZ HAND COILED INDIAN POTTERY
- By Casa Grandes Artist “Ramon”
- From Casas Grandes Valley, this pot is a one of a kind and of excellent quality.
- The walls are stone-polished by hand to a fine finish.
- This pot was hand coiled without the use of a potter’s wheel. There is a staggering amount of fine line detail and is entirely hand painted in intricate detail. The colors are as they are in the photos.
- The pot is 9.25” tall, 8.75 inches wide, 35” circumference and has a 3.75” round opening.
- Pot is signed on the bottom by the artist, Ramon.
- The inspiration of Casa Grandes pottery is taken from Casa Grandes tradition. The renaissance of this beautiful pottery began in the early 1960s, following the Amerind Foundation’s excavation of the nearby Paquime ruins in 1958. Until that time, there was little interest in the antiquities of the area, but after the excavation, however, a new awareness developed. Technically and ascetically, Casa Grandes pottery equals or surpasses the work of the Indian potters of the American Southwest. It is made with clay from the mountains high above the village of Mata Ortiz, painted with human hair brushes and natural pigments (minerals and roots of plants). It is hand-formed, without the user of a potter’s wheel and is dung fired. We are proud to offer these hand-etched, hand-coiled clay pots. Each intricate line has been handpainted into gorgeous clay by hand. Beautiful workmanship, high gloss, and stone polished finish.
