Tse-Pe & Dora – Black and Sienna Bowl with Raised Vine Design (1971-2)
4.5"w x 3"h
$ 700.00
Tse-Pe Gonzales was a son of noted potter Rose Gonzales. He was married to Dora Tse-Pe from 1971-1980 and they worked together on their early pottery. While this piece is from around 1971-2, so it is an early piece of their work. It has rounded interlocking “vines” around the surface of the bowl. The entire surface is fully polished and then it was fired a glassy black. After it was fired, the rounded vines were two-toned sienna. It is a striking and creative use of design and color. The piece is signed on the bottom, “Tse-Pe & Dora”. It is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks, restoration, or repair.
