Floral Egg Large Oaxaca Black Pottery Floral Egg Shaped Sculpture

Anakarem

(66)

"This design is inspired by our customs. The egg is one our our symbols at Easter," Anakarem says. Incised by hand into a ceramic sculpture, flowers wear a halo of raindrops. The talented artisan works in the time-honored black pottery tradition of Oaxaca, with techniques learned from her father. The fired clay is burnished to a sheen with a piece of quartz or obsidian. Because the figurine has a rounded bottom, it requires its circular display stand.

Margarita Revilla

Margarita Revilla, a master artisan versed in malleable materials, produces this charming wall cross in her Jalisco workshop through an exhaustive process.

Incorporating a floral design on the cross, Revilla blends the pre-Hispanic pottery style of barro negro, commonplace in Oaxaca, with the ancient symbol of the Western religion that arrived in Mexico with the Spanish.

Ceramic pencil holder, 'Oaxacan Twilight'

For My Mexican Friend

I bought this for my best friend (her family is from Mexico) for her birthday. I didn't actually see it because it came to me giftwrapped, but it was WELL protected in it's box. It was wrapped for dear life. So, if you're concerned about the fragility of it... I'm not sure how it could possibly break with how well they packaged it in paper.

Most Pretty Bud Vase

This little bud vase is very pretty, sturdy but yet delicate in the way the cut outs are around the base. I really like the black clay because one can use with any decor in any room. Thank you so much. I did see the video as to how you make your items and I am very impressed.

Such a great find

Honestly, never thought I'd want a pencil holder of all things, but this piece has such a great look and feel to it I'm glad to have found it. Has a great weight to it, so no worries of it tipping over.
