Jesus Galan R. Mexican Pottery Hand - Painted On Bauer Bisque Ware
Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:16975015 |
Jesus Galan R. Mexican pottery. My friend Suzanne was a pottery artist and she became friends with Jesus and his family. They were invited into his home and shared meals with them. He showed her the traditional Mexican method of painting pottery and she provided him with over glazes and their use. Suzi and her husband Loren made many trips to visit their studio. She has sadly passed away and now her husband is in the process of selling off the pottery... they spent years collecting and creating.
For any collector of Mexican, and especially the Galan Family artwork these are a prize. Note the Bauer imprint on the back. Suzanne was able to purchase some old unfinished stock when this line was discontinued. She traded the Galans for finished pieces. These are true Bauer pottery, just not painted by that company. This also is a potential collector's item of Bauer ware.
I don't see any cracks, hairline fractures of chips on the rim. Colors are beautiful and crisp. They have been lovingly stored for many decades. I don't know when these were produced but if you're interested I can see if Loren remembers.
This sale is for the set of three plates. These are not just cheap pottery made for the tourist trade but works of art and the price reflects this.
Jesus Galan's work was featured in the book Popular Arts of Mexico 1850-1950. (see picture of book which is not included in the sale) I have included photos of the Galan's working in their home studio, these are also not included but I can send you copies of the photos.
If you are interested in purchasing more Galan pottery message me and I can see how much ore is left to be auctioned off.
