Jar w/ birds by Sofia Medina. 8" h x 9" diameter. Sofia Pino Medina (1932 - 2010). Jar is in excellent condition. Pino married into the Medina family in 1948. She and her new husband Rafael (1929-1998) lived with his grandmother, Trinidad Medina who taught Sofia the techniques of potting. Her mentor, Trinidad, was one of the most talented potters at Zia Pueblo and Sofia learned well and produced quality wares throughout her life. Sofia used all natural materials in her pottery, including the pigments for painting. Sofia used a tan slip on her jars and stone-polished it to a beautiful silky sheen. The design is executed in a soft rose-red slip and dark brown mineral paint. State:New Mexico City:Zia Pueblo Date: ID# 49421
