Polychrome Mata Ortiz Textured Lizard Design Pottery Olla by Esperanza Tena
This Mata Ortiz Polychrome Textured Lizard Design Pottery was handmade by artist Esperanza Tena. She hand built the clay and then shaped it to its final form. Using natural paints, she completed the intricate designs which showcase lizards and feathers that surround this pottery. An outdoor ground firing (not a kiln) brings this lovely gem to life! The rounded base is poked to form a corrugated pattern that cascades around the pottery. It's 9-1/2" tall and about 10-1/2" at the widest and is signed. This Mata Ortiz Polychrome Textured Lizard Design Pottery would be perfect to display in your home or office!
Esperanza and her husband Eusebio are both talented, contemporary artisans. There are many more Tena's working and living in the Mata Ortiz community and are referenced in Parks "The Miracle of Mata Ortiz", Cahill's "The Story of Casas Grandes Pottery" and Lowell's "The Many Faces of Mata Ortiz".
