<p>[QUOTE="verybrad, post: 181473, member: 37"]When I was in Mexico in 1980, I was encouraged to buy a pot by Carlos Villanueva by a shop/gallery owner as being superior work and worthy of collecting. I did so and occasionally looked his work up over the years. I never found any kind of following for him and his works seemed to sell for about the same as unmarked pieces. Along the way, I picked up a second piece of his at a thrift store and still have them both. I now see that his pieces have some asking prices that are respectable on etsy, though ebay prices are lower with not much selling. Prices might be approaching what I paid for the first one ...... LOL! </p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_sacat=0&_nkw=carlos%20villanueva%20pottery&LH_Complete=1&rt=nc&_trksid=p2045573.m1684" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_sacat=0&_nkw=carlos%20villanueva%20pottery&LH_Complete=1&rt=nc&_trksid=p2045573.m1684" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_sacat=0&_nkw=carlos villanueva pottery&LH_Complete=1&rt=nc&_trksid=p2045573.m1684</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
