Maria Martinez, San Ildefonso Pueblo Potter
- Category: Modern
- Origin: San Ildefonso Pueblo, Po-woh-ge-oweenge
- Medium: Native Clay
- Size: 8-1/8” diameter
- Item # C3360E SOLD
Red ware by Maria Martinez is among the rarest of all pottery she produced. Black ware was so popular with collectors that she rarely fired any red ware. Early pieces like this one by Maria and Santana, produced shortly after Julian passed away, also are rare—maybe even rarer than pieces by Maria and Julian.
Condition: This piece is in very good condition, but does exhibit some scratches and abrasions as would be expected on a piece that is over 50 years old.
Provenance: from the estate of Michael Frost
