Zuni Pueblo Traditional Hand Coiled Pottery Bowl

Noreen Simplicio learned to make pottery while in high school. She knew the first time she touched the clay in 1977 that making pottery was what she wanted to do with her life. After graduating from high school, she spent some time working with Zuni/Acoma potter/sculptor Angelina Medina. Noreen digs her clay from the traditional Zuni clay beds, processes the clay to a plastic form, coils, forms and polishes her work using traditional methods, and makes her own paint pigments. She is well know for her whimsical lizards and frogs peering out of her pots. This bowl is signed by the Zuni artist.
