Mesa Verde Pottery - Continuing Traditions - Cortez, Southwest Colorado

Description

MESA VERDE POTTERY is dedicated to providing high-quality, handmade Native American pottery. Each piece, crafted by Navajo and Ute artisans is unique as we do NOT use guides, stencils or repetitious designs. Our artists free-hand carve or paint their unique geometric design work. Each pottery piece is signed by the artist with their name, tribal affiliation and U.S.A.

Mesa Verde Pottery also has a fine collection of original Southwestern art, including: weavings by Navajo, Hopi, and Zuni artists. We also have an extensive collection of Native American jewelry, kachina dolls, alabaster carvings, Southwestern prints and wall hangings, books, drums, and other "one of a kind" collectables. Mesa Verde Pottery is proud to offer additional pottery by renowned artists such as: Maria Martinez, Mary Small, and Margaret Tafoya.

Only eight minutes from the entrance to Mesa Verde National Park, we are nestled below the majestic Mesa Verde Plateau in southwestern Colorado. This area is the homeland of the Navajo and Ute Indian people. Pottery making has been a tradition in this area for over 1,000 years. The designs used on our pottery are original reflections of the rich heritage of the southwest Indian culture. Lead-free glazes are used making our pottery safe for food and drink. Non-glazed interiors, however, should not be used for liquids.
