Tribal Expressions Pottery
|
Indian pottery making has been an important activity for at least two thousand years. It is a vital industry in a number of pueblos, each of which produces highly differentiated ware. Traditionally, pottery was made essentially for household purposes. It no longer is a craft produced for utilitarian household functions, but one which is an aesthetic work of art. We are proud to carry work by many talented artisans of this craft. Many of the links below lead to artist information and our available selection of work by the respective artist. |
