Gonzales, Tse-Pe – Black and Sienna Jar with Carved Avanyu (1997)
4.5"w x 5"h
$ 800.00
Tse-Pe Gonzales was a son of noted potter Rose Gonzales. This jar is from 1997. The jar is coil-built and has a carved avanyu. It is not often that we see Tse-Pe’s pottery with carved designs as opposed to etched ones. The jar is slipped with mica and the rim and avanyu are two-toned sienna after the peice was fired black. There is a single inset turquoise hei-shi bead for the eye of the avanyu. The jar is signed on the bottom with Tse-Pe’s hallmark, “TP”. It is in very good condition with no chips, cracks, restoration, or repair.

Tse-Pe Gonzales
Tse-Pe Gonzales was the son of noted potter Rose Gonzales. Rose taught both Tse-Pe and his wife, Dora, to make pottery. They worked together until around 1980 and then they divorced and began to each work separately. Tse-Pe's work is signed with his "TP" hallmark. They were also innovators for their time, and were featured in 1976 in the pivotal book, "7 Families in Pueblo Pottery".
