Click to enlarge image(s)

For nearly twenty centuries pottery has been made and used in the American Southwest. The technology probably came from Mexico where it's cultural application served a different purpose. In the Southwest, pottery is principally used as containers. While pottery making is much older in Mexico, Central and South America, perhaps the oldest pottery in the Southwest has been found in southern Arizona, dating to 300 B.C.
This one is for the art lover with refined tastes. This is an incredible, high quality hand coiled pot with delicate thin walls. This fine piece of pottery was hand made by master Jemez Indian pottery artist Edwina Tortalita. Edwina lives in Albuquerque, New Mexico where she makes all of her pots out of natural clays gathered from the Earth. This one was hand painted with great skill. This Jemez Indian pot is 5-3/4" tall, 5-1/4" wide, 20-1/4" in circumference, and it has a 2-1/4" wide opening. Signed on the bottom by the Jemez Indian artist Edwina Tortalita.
