Hector Gallegos Jr: Turquoise Blooming Flower Masterpiece

Magnificent turquoise flower olla with a leaf-like base, by Master Potter Hector Gallegos Jr. This delicate olla has a beautiful contemporary, well-balanced shape and is decorated with Hector's trademark design of etched and painted minute details. The olla has the form of a flower and its petals are circles perfectly painted with different mandala designs!  Hector Jr learned at young age pottery making from his famous parents Hector Gallegos and Graciela Martinez. His work has been included in many exhibitions and museums such as the Southwest Museum in Los Angeles California, The Museum Of Man in San Diego California, the National Museum of Folk Art in Mexico City.  Absolutely gorgeous!
