Speckled Rock, Paul – “Buffalo Blessings” Bronze 11/15 (1977)
$ 750.00
Paul Speckled Rock was a grandson of Severa Tafoya but learned to make pottery from Joseph Lonewolf (his then father-in-law). Paul’s son Adam Speckled Rock has continued to make made pottery, as well as his niece, Jennifer Tafoya. This is one of his bronze series featuring different Pueblo dancers. This piece is entitled, “Pueblo Blessing”. It has a single Santa Clara Buffalo Dancer. What’s interesting on this piece is that the dancer is placed off to the side of the wood base. Paul also placed the title tab with the Buffalo Dancer facing backwards. The piece is amazing in its complexity. The piece was cast in 1977. This is 11/15. It is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks, restoration or repair.
