Lupe Soto Mata Ortiz Black-On-Black Pottery Vase — Casas Grandes Mexico
This finely crafted black-on-black pottery vase is an original work by Lupe Soto, a noted artisan from Mata Ortiz in the Casas Grandes region of Mexico. Created using the traditional clay coil-and-scrape method, the vessel displays meticulous sgraffito designs combining geometric grids with stylized floral forms. The contrast of polished and matte black surfaces adds depth and elegance to the piece, exemplifying the celebrated artistry of Mata Ortiz pottery.
The Mata Ortiz tradition continues the legacy of the ancient Paquimé culture, and Lupe Soto’s work is admired for its precision, symmetry, and cultural significance. This signed example would make a striking addition to any collection of Southwest or Mexican art.
