11" Rose Gonzales Santa Clara Pot
Signed "Rose"

About the Artist:
Rose Gonzales (1900-1989)

San Ildefonso Carved Blackware Pottery Bowl. This bowl is one of her classic shapes and designs. There are alternating traditional step design clouds and rounded clouds. It is signed on the bottom in the clay, “Rose”. Rose is often considered the first at San Ildefonso Pueblo to make carved pottery. She was originally from San Juan Pueblo and married Robert Gonzales in 1920. Her carved pottery was a cameo in appearance as it is not deep and ends on the sharp edge of her pottery. She was the mother of Tse-Pe Gonzales and taught him and his wife, Dora Tse-Pe to make pottery. She was also the great-aunt of Russell Sanchez and taught him to make pottery. Over the years, she won numerous awards for her pottery and her distinctive designs and highly burnished surfaces. Approx. Net Weight: 12.7 oz Keywords: Native American, Indian; Ref: BD1506
