Large Maria Martinez Black Ware Pottery Jar

About the Item

Black on black pottery vase with gunmetal finish, geometric band decorated shoulder; unusual style. Signed Marie. Collected circa 1930 by Clara Kingsley. 6" x 10". San Ildefonso Pueblo, New Mexico, are internationally renowned 20th-century American potters. Inspired by the findings of archeologists, Maria and her husband led a revival of ancient pottery styles among Pueblo artisans. Between 1918 and 1943, Maria shaped the pots and her husband Julian painted the designs. Santana is their daughter. Julian was the first acknowledged male artist of their Pueblo to do so.
