Description
Tigua Indian pottery vase made by hand with natural clay and hand painted with traditional patterns and colors of the Tigua Indians. Albert is also one of only two remaining Tigua potters, his Mother Yolanda being the second. Both Albert and Yolanda are warm and friendly people with a desire to see their people's heritage continued.
Similar in style to Mata Ortiz pottery, Tigua pottery will be lost if not preserved. We can raise awareness and would like to see a revival of the traditional crafts among the younger members of the tribe, but for now Albert and Yolanda are the only remaining potters of the historic Tigua Indians. Measures 7" wide by 5" tall.
Authentic Native American, Tribe: Tigua
