Martha Mirabal Santa Clara Pueblo Blackware Bowl – 5.75" Diameter
This finely crafted blackware pottery bowl is the work of Martha Mirabal (b. 1946), a respected potter from Santa Clara Pueblo, New Mexico. Daughter of renowned potter Maria I. Naranjo, Martha continues her family's tradition of creating highly polished blackware ceramics. The bowl features a classic deep black finish achieved through traditional reduction firing, with incised geometric designs that reflect the rich cultural heritage of the Pueblo. Signed on the underside “Martha Mirabal / Santa Clara Pueblo,” this piece exemplifies the meticulous craftsmanship and aesthetic principles characteristic of Santa Clara pottery.
Ideal for collectors of Native American art or those appreciative of traditional Pueblo pottery techniques, this bowl represents a tangible connection to the enduring legacy of Santa Clara ceramic artistry.
