Jemez Pueblo Wedding Jar (or Wedding Vase) by M.C. Tosa (often signed as M.C. Tosa or MC Tosa).

 

Jemez Pueblo (Walatowa) in New Mexico is renowned for its pottery tradition, which features hand-coiled clay, natural slips (often red, buff, or polychrome), stone-polished and matte finishes, and painted or etched designs. Wedding jars/vases are a classic form: typically double-spouted vessels connected by a handle (symbolizing unity in marriage), used ceremonially or decoratively.

 

M.C. Tosa is a Jemez Pueblo potter who creates traditional and polychrome pieces, including jars, vases, and wedding vessels. Multiple vintage and collectible examples appear in auctions and sales (e.g., eBay, auction houses).
