Pieza Crepúsculo is handmade by Taller Coatlicue, a pottery studio in Santa Maria Atzompa, Oaxaca, Mexico. Atzompa is a Zapotec town that has been a major producer of pottery since the Monte Alban period, over 2,500 years ago.
Ana Maria and her family mold their pieces on a hand-operated wheel. Through adventurous experimentation, the Alarzon Martinez family has innovated in design and firing methods achieving an extraordinary result that is both ancient and modern, traditional and contemporary.

Note
Color variations due to firing are a part of the natural beauty of this type of ceramic. Pieces will vary slightly in size.
