Maria Kenarova “Seasons” Ceramic Tile – 9.5" Signed, COA & Pamphlet, NM

This handcrafted ceramic tile by Maria Kenarova comes from her “Seasons Collection,” a series reflecting nature’s cyclical beauty through richly detailed relief work. The composition features four tree motifs—each symbolizing a different season—framed by a textured border of stylized leaves. Earthy glazes in warm terracotta, mossy green, and muted bronze highlight the depth and intricate carving of the design.

Created in Santa Fe, New Mexico, Kenarova’s work blends her European training with Southwestern influences. Each piece is individually crafted using hand-impressed and painted clay, then kiln-fired for durability. Signed in the lower right corner with her distinctive “MK” monogram stamp, this wall-mountable tile includes the original pamphlet and a hand-completed Certificate of Authenticity.

A beautiful statement for any ceramic art collection or nature-inspired space.
