This pot is ~10-1/4" tall and ~6-1/2" wide. Signed Tony Silveira. Painting is still widely used to decorate pots in the Southwest. Potters make no measurements or sketches but paint designs free-hand. This pot has a amazing amount of fine line free hand detail. It is made with clay from the mountains above the village of MataOrtiz, painted with human hair brushes and natural pigments.
