Description

Francisco Enríquez Mata Ortiz Olla — Hand-Coiled, Mottled Clay

A hand-coiled Mata Ortiz pottery olla by Francisco Enríquez, signed on the underside. This rounded form with a gently flared rim showcases the natural beauty of the clay through a mottled marbled surface. The swirling contrasts in tone create an organic, almost stone-like effect, giving the piece a sculptural presence without painted embellishment.

Francisco Enríquez is part of the Mata Ortiz pottery tradition, renowned for reviving and innovating the ancient Casas Grandes (Paquimé) ceramic styles. This piece reflects both technical mastery and contemporary artistry, making it an appealing choice for collectors and decorative display.
