Plato Chico (black clay) is handmade from Barro Negro. Pottery Selections Co. thanks you for your support. The Oaxacan black clay also known as “barro negro” is only found in Oaxaca Mexico. All designs are exclusively handmade by Oaxacan artisans that carry their traditions through generations. The whole process takes more than a month to complete including the handmade decorations. The “black” color of the products is caused by the burning part of the making process which makes the pieces unique due to its all natural colors and textures. The “shine” feel of the products is also handmade. The artisans use a jade stone with every single product to give them the “shine” effect and also create each design one by one.
