Tzintzuntzan Pottery

Can't Post | Private Reply
I’m in love with the pottery of the Tzintzuntzan area. I’ve tried to find Manuel Morales’s taller on my last two trips. I do have several pieces from Manuel Morales that I purchased in Patzcuaro. Nobody in Tzintzuntzan could steer me in the right direction. With my limited Spanish and my friend / guide from Quinceo ( spelling ), we could never connect. Any help out there? I am also interested in other Paztcuaro area potters. I have been through Capula and have several pieces.

Walk in the church yard, enter the church on your right (the north side) through the main entrance, exit on the side door at your right, near the altar. His taller is just outside. When he's open, he's open, and when he's gone, it's locked up.

Thank you JR. You continue to be my primary reference to the wonders of Michoacan. I would also be interested in other potters ( and other works ) of the state, especially the Lago Patzcuaro area. I hope Esperanza and others can reply with specific artisans / crafts and locations. Thanks again.
