This cup and saucer were created by the Ortíz Cortés family in Comunidad Santo Domingo Tonaltepec, Oaxaca, Mexico. The piece is made from natural clay modeled by hand and painted with natural pigments.
This mug and saucer is an example of the tradition of "splashed" ceramics, a technique that is unique and distinctive from the Mixteca Alta.
These pottery pieces are among the few in the world that use vegetable pigments for decoration. The dark brown color of the stains is achieved when, upon pulling them out of the kiln, at a temperature close to 900°C, the artisan applies an ink made from cactus and oak bark.
**These are handmade which makes each unique.
