Patricio, Tobie Mae – “Interlocking Butterflies” Water Jar
6.75"w x 5.5"h
$ 850.00
Tobie Mae (b. 2005) is a 19-year-old daughter of noted potter Robert Patricio. This jar is coil-built from native clay and thin-walled. It has a classic Acoma water jar shape and a high shoulder and short neck. The jar is painted with bee-weed and clay slips. The jar has four large butterflies with interlocking wings. There is a two-colored flower between the butterflies. It is a detailed and striking piece that is a creative use of form and design. The jar is signed, “T.M. Patricio”. It is exciting to see such excellent work by young Acoma potters!
