Bone White Sheep of Abundance | San José de Gracia | Mansión Iturbe Artisans Collection

$ 1,365.00

This exceptional piece from the Mansión Iturbe Artisans Collection is a testament to the patience and virtuosity of the women potters of Michoacán. Each lamb is a unique work, individually molded and detailed by the renowned master artisan Doña Luz, from the community of San José de Gracia.

The Mastery of Doña Luz

What distinguishes this work is the meticulous pastillaje technique. Doña Luz patiently applies small clay spheres—through a delicate pinching process—to emulate the density and curl of wool. The result is a sculpture with impressive tactile richness, bathed in an elegant bone white with a glazed finish that sublimely captures the light.
