Dora Tse-Pe learned to make pottery from her mother-in-law, Rose Gonzales.  She is renowned for her beautifully formed and highly polished pottery.  This is one of her classic bears.  It is highly polished black and has sienna in the center of the back.  There is a single inset piece of turquoise.  The bear is signed on the bottom in the clay.  It is in very good condition with no chips, cracks, restoration or repair. There are some very light scratches on the back in the sienna area, which can be seen in the photos.
