Mata Ortiz pottery, named after the small village of Juan Mata Ortiz, Chihuahua, where it originated and is now being produced, has achieved the enviable status as perhaps one of the more innovative ceramics movements to evolve in the 20th century.
Unlike Native American potters, Mata Ortiz artists are not confined to stylistic traditions. Rather, Mata Ortiz potters have had the unique ability to follow any successful tangent, in whatever direction the artist feels inspired to explore. For this reason, Mata Ortiz pottery has achieved unrivaled diversity in style, design, and creativity.

Black Candle Globe
By Mata ortiz Artist
This pottery comes from Oaxaca, Mexico and is made entirely by hand, as it has been for hundreds of years. The high iron content in the clay carbonizes during firing, giving a dull black appearance, which is then polished to a pleasing sheen.So, please note that no two pieces are exactly the same. When USED WITH A CANDLE, ALWAYS PLACE ON A NON-FLAMMABLE BASE!
