The Maria/Popovi 10/64 plate refers to a piece of pottery created by Maria Martinez and her son Popovi Da, renowned San Ildefonso Pueblo potters. The signature "Maria/Popovi 10/64" indicates a collaborative work from October 1964, during their partnership from 1956 to 1970, often considered the peak of Maria’s creative output. Maria crafted and polished the pottery, while Popovi painted the designs and refined firing techniques, achieving finishes like the gunmetal sheen. The plate likely features a classic design, such as the Avanyu (water serpent) or feather motifs, common in their black-on-black or polychrome styles.
