Tse-Pe Gonzales was a son of noted potter Rose Gonzales.  This jar is from the late 1980s.  It is coil-built with a sharp shoulder and elongated neck. The shape is much like that of his mother, Rose. The top of the shoulder is etched with an avanyu.  There is a turquosie hei-shi bead for the eye.  The entire piece is fully polished. The neck is two-toned sienna.  The jar is signed on the bottom with Tse-Pe’s hallmark, “TP”. It is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks, restoration, or repair.
