Clay Pottery from Oaxaca
Oaxaca is one of the most diverse regions of Mexico, where artisans from over 70 clay pottery communities have come to personify the extraordinary cultural and linguistic variety of the land. Rooted in history, each artist has a specific source of mud and sand that is used to bring a unique style to the finished piece. Working with experienced hands and simple tools, embellishments are made with smooth stones and natural pigments to create these beautiful and useful clay pieces.
