Description

Jose Quezada - Mata Ortiz Olla
Signed Bottom

Jose Quezada is the eldest son of master potter Nicolas Quezada, pioneer artist of Mata Ortiz. Frequently Jose's pieces command higher prices than his famous father's .

 Jose masterfully decorated this olla with detailed black and red painting that bring out the beauty of this fine soft lime clay. This  very special color is achieved by  mixing very small amounts of copper oxide with the white clay found in the mountains surrounding Mata Ortiz.
