Description

Angel Villa Mata Ortiz Hand-Coiled Pottery Wedding Vase with Deer Motif

Hand-coiled and painted pottery wedding vase by Angel Villa, a contemporary artist from the renowned Mata Ortiz pottery tradition of northern Mexico. The vase features stylized black deer set against a soft buff clay ground, accented with fine stippled detailing. Its graceful double-spout form and looped handle reference ancient Casas Grandes (Paquimé) vessel shapes, skillfully reinterpreted in a modern context.

Condition
In good overall condition with light shelf wear only. No chips, cracks, or repairs observed. Painted surfaces remain clear and well-defined, consistent with gentle display.
