POTTERY STORY
In San Marcos Tlapazola, a rural Zapotec village outside of Oaxaca City, there are roughly 300 potters—all of them women. For 20 generations, the village has specialized in creating cookware from the unique red clay that is found in the area, and the process has remained unchanged for generations.
The intense red color of this piece is achieved with a special earth bath, coming from a hill near the community and delicately polished with quartz.
