Fabulous large olla by  Gerardo Lucero, one of the most talented  Mata Ortiz potters.

This very attractive piece is outstanding in so many ways. It has a beautiful, symmetrical and perfectly balanced form

The color and sheen of the pot accentuate the magnificent geckos Gerardo created. He also painstakingly painted little dots to provide a textured background for his lizards.

These stylized lizards gracefully flow around the pot. They start at the bottom of the pot and go from a circling line to a tridimensional figure!

Additionaly  with this pot Gerardo is contributing with new designs and forms to the ever creative Mata Ortiz art.

One of the most beautiful pots I have seen!

11½" Tall  36" Circumference
