18/365 Vase
We have many pieces of Native American pottery from various pueblos in New Mexixo. This piece was given to us by John's mom. It was gifted to her many many years ago. It is from Acoma Pueblo which is approximately 60 miles (97 km) west of Albuquerque, New Mexico. Acoma is one of the most beautiful places you could ever visit.
Tribal elders assert that the name means 'place that always was', while outsiders say it means 'people of the white rock'.
You can identify Acoma pottery from its thin walls, distinctive geometric patterns, and black, white, and warm colors and sometimes fluted rims. Another distinct feature of Acoma pottery is that it is usually the clay material is unglazed.
