Description

Luly Lucero Black-on-Black Mata Ortiz Olla – Hand-Coiled & Painted, Signed

This black-on-black olla is a masterful piece of contemporary Mata Ortiz artistry, by potter Luly Lucero. This piece embodies the traditional Paquimé pottery techniques while incorporating Lucero's distinctive modern aesthetic. The vessel features intricate geometric and abstract motifs, etched into its polished black surface, creating a striking contrast between the glossy and matte finishes.

Lucero is a highly regarded artist from Mata Ortiz, Chihuahua, a village known for its revival of ancient Casas Grandes pottery traditions. Her work continues to be sought after by collectors of fine Mexican folk art. This piece is signed on the underside and it includes its original documentation.
