Description: Barro negro (black clay) pottery, made of natural clay found only in Oaxaca, is the ultimate combination of intricate handmade work, the art of centuries-old traditions, and the almost magical effects of chemical reactions. Getting to a finished piece involves a knowledge that has clearly been perfected over generations: from mastering the elements; conquering the use of specific kinds of instruments; the perfect distress and hand coordination; to understanding precise temperatures to achieve desired colors. Barro negro products, which are 100% organic, made solely of clay and water, and carved using natural handmade tools and hands, take on a beautiful and unique sheen after firing, unseen in other natural clays. You are bidding on 6 individual pieces including a large candleholder. Please see all images for conditions. This lot was purchased in SW Florida from an estate of a MCM home, the former owner a was a model. I can not confirm that the 3 handled pot is barro negro but I've included it regardless.
