MATA ORTIZ- TAURINA BACA - MASTER POTTER - MUSEUM QUALITY

Description

Beautiful Unique Olla by Master Potter, Taurina Baca.  She was one of Juan Quezada's first non family students and is known as one of his best students.  She is a Master Potter of impeccable reputation.  She has been a potter since 1973 and her work is very hard to find and very desirable.  This piece features a marble base color that gives the background clay a marble finish.  You will note in the photos above there are irregular dark and light spots in the marble finish.  There are also some irregular areas in the clay, which is common and not a flaw. These irregular shading spots are not flaws, but part of the design.  I have featured these areas in the last 3 photos.  Please review all photos to make sure the piece meets your approval.  I am selling this collection for a friend and you will note the Gallery description and price of 67 in photo above. So our listing price is a deal.  This is a  Serious Collectors piece and a rare find. It is 12" Tall, 30" in circumference, 10" in diameter and 4" at top opening.  It is signed on bottom by Taurina Baca and includes pottery ring.
