American Indian pottery has long been admired for its craftsmanship and beauty. Southwest pottery from such Native American pottery makers as the Acoma pottery makers, the Hopi pottery makers and the Zuni pottery makers is some of the most widely known. However, the pottery from such Native American pottery makers as the Santa Clara Pueblo, the San Idelfonso Pueblo, the Zia Pueblo, and the Jemez Pueblo, as well as other Native American pottery, is often highly sought after. In addition, a particular piece of pottery from the Navajo, the Navajo Wedding Vase, has become very popular.
Among the southwest pottery makers, and especially the pueblo pottery makers, the very essence of their particular clay is of the highest importance. The clay is highly valued, often difficult to dig out and is of major importance in the overall look of each particular Native American pottery maker’s work. Much of the painting of pottery is done in the old fashion method using a fiber of a Yucca leaf as a brush. The artist also do a large amount of carving and scrafitto. Most of the Native American pottery uses slip, a creamy mixture of fine clay and water which is “painted” over the surface to form a basis for the final painting of designs.
One of the differences in pottery making is the difference between “hand-coiled” pottery and “greenware” pottery. Hand–coiled pottery is literally hand formed, usually in coils of clay. Greenware pottery is poured in a mold. Both are hand-painted, if they are painted at all.
The process of making greenware in a mold saves considerable time, and is normally reflected in the price. If you see a larger piece of pottery at a lower price, or a piece of pottery that has sharper edges, you can “normally assume” that piece of pottery is greenware. Most of the more expensive pottery is hand-coiled. Although these are different techniques, both involve the artist hand-making an individual piece of pottery.
