Silvia Lopez Mata Ortiz Blackware Pot — Signed, 5.5" Diameter
Hand-coiled and painted by Silvia Lopez, this signed blackware pottery vessel from Mata Ortiz, Mexico, features a beautifully symmetrical feather motif in a classic black-on-black design. Crafted entirely by hand using traditional methods—without a wheel or kiln—it showcases the hallmark style of the Mata Ortiz ceramic movement, renowned for its refinement and historical roots in Casas Grandes pottery. This compact pot, approximately 4 inches tall and 5.5 inches in diameter, has a highly burnished surface with meticulously painted details. The artist’s signature is inscribed on the base. A Campbell’s soup can is shown for scale.
Condition:
In good condition with light surface wear and some shelf wear to the base. No chips, cracks, or repairs noted. The finish remains consistent and visually appealing.
Dimensions:
Height: 4 inches
Diameter: 5.5 inches
