DOROTHY TORIVIO ACOMA MUSEUM-QUALITY VASE AUTHENTIC AND SIGNED
********
From my personal collection I am pleased to offer for your consideration a spectacular little vase created by that towering genius of  pottery, Dorothy Torivio (1946 - 2911)
When Dorothy was asked how she was able to make a perfect mathematical design that followed the contours of a pot. she replied, “I see it in my head.”  So she was well aware that her brain was uniquely suited for her work.  And there has never been another like her.  When Dorothy Torivio sadly died in 2911, the world lost a truly unique person, an “Einstein“ in her field.
Even this little pot. 2 3/4" by 2 5/8", shows her genius to the fullest.  This vase is not her famous spiral, rather it is the a perfect interlocking of “petals” on the successive rows of “flowers,” with no beginning and no end.
This lovely vase is in essentially mint condition.  There are no cracks, chips, scratches, hairlines, touch-ups. rubs or repairs.  Even the bottom, which frequently has shelf scratches, is pristine, showing only Dorothy’s fine clear signature.
Most of my items are estate, vintage or antique. They are not new; have been handled and enjoyed; and may well have age appropriate use wear.  Hand-made pots invariably have irregularities or imperfections of some sort or other.  I have never actually seen the perfect hand-made pot.  Even photographs may not clearly show every possible irregularity and defect and indeed may exaggerate small imperfections into what appear to be major ones. Not everything appearing in a photograph will necessarily be mentioned specifically in the text.  Please keep in mind these factors when placing bids.  Do examine the pictures carefully as they are an integral part of the description.
