Description

R. Galvan Mata Ortiz Olla

This hand-painted olla by Mexican artist R. Galvan features a dynamic lizard motif, rendered in bold black and red tones against a warm terracotta background. Inspired by Pueblo artistic traditions, the lizard—a symbol of resilience and connection to nature—is surrounded by intricate geometric patterns that echo Native American pottery styles. The vase's spherical form is topped with a contrasting black-painted neck, adding to its visual appeal. Signed "R. Galvan" and marked "Made in Mexico," this piece is a testament to the artist’s craftsmanship and cultural heritage. 

Condition:
Good condition with minor surface wear, including light scuffs and scratches, consistent with age and use. The hand-painted design remains vivid and intact, with no visible chips or cracks.

Dimensions:
Height: 11 inches (28 cm)
Diameter: 10 inches (25 cm)
