Vintage Tonita Blackware Dish

Tonita Martinez Roybal (1892-1945) was a highly acclaimed San Ildefonso Pueblo potter, celebrated for her exquisite, deeply burnished blackware pottery, often featuring intricate matte black designs. Her name is synonymous with blackware design, and her pieces are highly coveted. 

We are so excited to present you with this gorgeous dish, a perfect representation of her beautiful work, featuring a combination of matte & gloss blackware in a classic southwestern motif. This dish is signed "Tonita" on the back, and is in good vintage condition, with some surface wear due to age. 4" diameter.
