Her work features traditional techniques such as hand-coiling and stone polishing, often with geometric designs, as seen in a black-on-black basket with a geometric pattern above the shoulder. Her contribution to the Santa Clara tradition of finely crafted, polished blackware and redware with deep carvings. Garcia comes from a lineage of notable potters, though she is distinct from Margaret Tafoya, a renowned Santa Clara matriarch known for large, polished blackware vessels and deep carvings, and Tammy Garcia, a contemporary innovator who is Tafoya’s great-niece. Margaret Garcia’s work upholds the pueblo’s centuries-old tradition of creating glossy blackware and redware, often incorporating traditional symbols like bear claws or geometric patterns, while contributing her own artistic voice to this vibrant heritage.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antique American Indian Art","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45878108848293,"sku":"22-0221","price":145.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/6071\/5685\/files\/s725348264778838518_p15002_i1_w819.jpg?v=1757346533","url":"https:\/\/antiqueamericanindianart.com\/products\/22-0221-pot-with-handle-by-margaret-garcia-santa-clara","provider":"Antique American Indian Art","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
