Tafoya-Sanchez, Linda – Plum-Colored Swirling Melon Bowl with 22 Ribs
$ 1,900.00
This is a classic bowl by Linda Tafoya-Sanchez. This jar has a round body. It is carved with 22 melon ribs. They alternate between polished and polished mica. However, it is the new coloration that is exciting. Linda has been trying various traditional firing techniques, and she has been able to achieve this coloration, which is plum or dark cherry color (a purplish-reddish-brown). It is exceptional in person! The color seems to change in the light. It is exciting that not only has she created this coloration, but she has also been able to achieve it consistently. She says it is a bit more work in the firing but the results are worth the time and risk. The jar has a very modernist appearance and yet is classic in traditional design elements. It is signed on the bottom, “Linda Tafoya-Sanchez”.
