Description
DONA ROSA STYLE MEXICAN BLACK POTTERY VASE:
Vintage Mexican barro negro black pottery vase with carved flowers around the center and an undulating lip. Burnished on the topmost surface to produce a rich shiny black finish that contrasts with the low matte indentations.
This pottery has been produced for centuries with history going back to the ancient Zapotec people group. It was made famous in the 1950’s by artist Dona Rosa who discovered that by polishing the pottery before it was completely dry, and by low firing, the result would produce a shiny black finish rather than the grayish matte that had been produced for generations.
Consigned by Philadelphia collector of 1940s Mexican and Native American items.
7" X 4"
$40 - $80
