Amado Peña Limited Edition Ceramic Tile #48/100 – “Chili Ristra” Southwestern Figure, Framed
Limited edition ceramic tile artwork by acclaimed Southwestern artist Amado Maurilio Peña Jr. (American, b. 1943), numbered 48/100 and signed “amado” in glaze. Peña, an enrolled member of the Pascua Yaqui Tribe of Arizona, is recognized for his bold, geometric compositions celebrating the heritage and daily life of the American Southwest. This work depicts a stylized figure draped in a green and white blanket, gazing upon a vivid red chili ristra—a recurring motif of warmth, abundance, and tradition in Southwestern culture. Executed in Peña’s characteristic palette of rust, turquoise, and deep earth tones, the piece combines modern abstraction with indigenous symbolism.
Professionally framed in a reflective gold-tone metal frame, this tile belongs to Peña’s rare limited edition ceramic series—distinct from his well-known prints and highly prized among collectors of Native and Southwestern fine art.
