Acoma Pueblo Pottery
Traditional Acoma pottery
is made using a slate-like clay found within the hills
surrounding the Pueblo. When fired using traditional methods,
this clay allows the potters to form very thin walls, a common
and sought after characteristic of Acoma pottery. Although hand
coiled pottery is preferred for its collectability, there are
many fine Acoma artists who prefer to use pour molded or
greenware pots as their canvas. While pour molded pots do not
retain the same value as a traditionally hand coiled piece,
their low price point makes them great for decorating or for
gifts. We carry a wide range of Authentic Acoma pottery from
artists like Dorothy Torivio, Sandra Victorino, Frederica
Antonio, Rachel Aragon, Theresa Garcia-Salvador, Wilfred Garcia,
Leland Robert Vallo, Kim Vallo, Paula Estevan, Robert Patricio,
Franklin Peters and more. For more info on the Acoma Pueblo,

HAND MADE
POTTERY STORYTELLER
by Marilyn Ray
Marilyn
Ray is a full blooded Native American Indian. She is
a member of the Yellow Corn Clan and born in 1954
into the Acoma Pueblo. She began experimenting with
clay at the age of 12. Marilyn was inspired to learn
the art of working with clay from observing her
grandmother, the late Dolores S. Sanchez. She had mastered all the fundamentals by
the age of 18 and has established herself as one of
the finest Storyteller makers of our time. Her
storytellers have been commented as being the
largest, most complex and innovative styles.
Marilyn specializes in handmade sculptures like
storytellers, small children, nativity’s, animals, and
friendship bowls. She gathers her clay and other natural
pigments from within the Acoma Pueblo. The clay and sand
is prepared by drying, grinding, and sifting before it
is mixed with water to produce the medium (weight of
clay). The clay sculptures are then hand molded, air
dried, and painted. Finally, they are fired outdoors,
the traditional way, or fired in a kiln. The colors used
on her sculptures are also provided from plants and
minerals. Marilyn combines her skills in both
traditional pottery making and figurative work. She
signs her sculptures as: Marilyn Ray, Acoma, N.M.
followed by a hand drawn lizard.

ACOMA PUEBLO HAND
COILED POTTERY
by
Terrence Chino
Terrance M. Chino, Sr.
is a full blooded Native American Indian. He is a member of the Sun Clan
and he was born in 1965 into the Acoma Pueblo. He learned the ancient
traditional methods of working with clay art from his mother, the late,
Evelyn L. Chino. She taught him all the fundamentals of where to gather
clay and how to prepare and hand coil pottery. She also taught him the
importance of continuing the long lived tradition of his ancestors.
Terrance gathers his
clay, natural pigments, and vegetation from within the Acoma Pueblo. He
cleans it for impurities and hand mixes it with sand and water to temper
the clay. Then, he begins the hand coiling process, he prays and chants
while he works on his pottery so that each piece is blessed. When he has
completed the hand coiling and his pot has taken form he sets them out
to dry. While the pottery is drying he breaks down all his plants so
that he may begin hand boiling colors for his masterpieces. He gathers
plants such as spinach plant and wild flowers for this process. When his
pottery is fully dried he sands each piece to a smooth finish and begins
hand painting with the stem of a yucca plant which has been fashioned
into a brush. He hand paints his favorite designs of checkerboards,
flowers, mimbres, and sunfaces. Finally, Terrance fires his pottery the
traditional way, outdoors. He signs his pottery as: Terrance M. Chino,
Sr., Acoma, N.M. Terrance is related to: Terrance M. Chino, Jr. (son)
Emil Chino, Jeffrey Chino, Sr., (brothers), Ilona Chino, Colleen Marian,
Marlene Vallo, Idene Mariano (sisters), Ivan F. Chino (father), and the
late, Evelyn L. Chino (mother).
