San Ildefonso Pueblo Avanyu Carved Duo Tone Pottery Vase

Dora Tse-Pe (D) learned to make pottery from her mother-in-law, Rose Gonzales. She began making her own pottery in the late 1970’s and her work was inspired by the shapes and styles of Rose’s pottery yet with Dora’s distinctive high polish. Her pottery is signed on the bottom in the clay, “Dora Tse-Pe”. Dora has won numerous awards for her work at Santa Fe Indian Market and the Heard Museum Indian Fair and her pottery can be found in numerous books, including “The Art of Clay” and “Legacy of Generations”. Sadly, Dora passed away in 2022.

This stunning example of Dora's work is signed and dated 2005.
