in the 1st 100 or so images of a search, the nearest i find to the vase i bought and offered would be this one, except "mine" was without carvingin the design.
i bought for myself the nº of Artes de Mexico dedicated to Mata Ortiz. sold out but the cover and two doubles pages visible here: https://artesdemexico.com/shop/products/45-cer%C3%A1mica-de-mata-ortiz-agotado -

was lucky enough to find in the show i told you of in fist post, a small.. but wonderful, and affordable piece (sort a vase, thinner in shape, geometrical motives, a very peculiar irregular opening form) i brought back to France as marriage present to my son-in-law and his wife! -

yes my post is ambiguous too. Mata Ortiz is 1. a city in Chihuahua State, and 2. the style of pottery they're making, reviving the ancient techniques and colors and design of the pottery of an archeological site nearby. the precursor and initiatior (40-50 years ago or so) is Juan Quezada Celado, and now with many artists it's striving again! -

and who made it! Mata Ortiz has an extraordinary story. i visited a show of Mata Ortiz pottery once when i lived in Mexico, it's simply gorgeous, each peace is a marvel, and their style, i love it!
