Acoma Pottery: Descendants of the Pre-Columbian Mimbres Indians, Acoma potters are widely known for their elegant white pottery. Some of the finest white kaolin clay available is found at the Pueblo, as well as brown/black and red/rust earth paints which are used to decorate the pottery. Intricate representations of animals, insects, birds, humans and their activities, as well as other elements of nature, are painted with a delicacy and attention to detail that is rarely matched in the art world.
We represent some of the finest potters from the pueblos of west-central New Mexico. Among these potters are:
