The "diamonte" (diamond) motif has been a favorite design for generations of coppersmiths in Santa Clara del Cobre. Historically the diamond has been a symbol of strength and invulnerability. Master Coppersmith Antonio Ziranda has created a diamond pattern on this vase using respousse', a technique dating to ancient Mesopotamia. Antonio begins from inside the vase, using hammers and other handmade tools to "push" the diamond design out.

Antonio created this striking vase for Cobre's 30th anniversary. The fish motif is inspired by "Pescado Blanco" (white fish), a Michoacan delicacy. Lake Patzcuaro is near Antonio's village and home to Pescado Blanco. The flora and fauna of the lake have been a source of inspiration for centuries to potters, weavers, woodcarvers and of course, coppersmiths! Antonio's rendition is substantial and bold - copperwork at its best. Just TWO left!

When I visited Santa Clara del Cobre October 2019 I saw this vase in Antonio Ziranda's workshop. My visit was timed with one of the most important festivals in Mexico, El Dia de los Muertos. Part of the festivities includes a much-anticipated contest where artisans submit their best work to be judged with hopes of winning prizes. You will see the best ceramics, wood carving, weaving, embroidery, masks, and of course, copper! Antonio Ziranda participates every year and I visited his workshop just before he submitted his pieces to be juried. When I saw this vase, I had to have it. Apparently, the judges felt the same way as it received a blue ribbon! Now available in TWO sizes:
- SIZE: 6.25" high - $230
- SIZE: 7" high - $275

The creator of this design was an amazing woman of her time, Marie Zimmerman (1879-1972). She was active in a “man’s world” creating metal sculptures and objects with a distinctive organic style. She came from a wealthy family, didn’t need to work and had no desire to marry – she was a true maverick. Antonio Ziranda created a beautiful interpretation of Zimmerman’s original vase. We have just ONE!

Working with copper has been a tradition in Santa Clara del Cobre, Michoacan since pre-Hispanic times. A few of the workshops in Santa Clara have modernized but Antonio Ziranda is keeping the old tradition alive, as do all the craftsmen that I work with. Michoacan is an agricultural state filled with pine forests, croplands, and fruit orchards. This indigenous design was inspired by the segments you see in oranges and grapefruits, many of which are grown in the nearby Tierra Caliente (hot land), not far from Antonio's village.

I first visited Santa Clara del Cobre in Michoacan, Mexico in the 1980s, a village that has worldwide fame for its copperwork. During subsequent trips, I always made time to visit the Museo Nacional del Cobre, a wonderful place to see the best of the best, full of award winning masterpieces that date back decades. It was during one of those visits that this bowl caught my eye. I was immediately fascinated with the organic pre-Hispanic design, its full belly implying abundance. I had to find the artist! It took a bit of digging but eventually I met Master Coppersmith Antonio Ziranda and thus began our working relationship. The original bowl is huge, 20" wide. I asked Antonio to create a scaled down version and it is beautiful.
