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.
