Juana Leno Pottery C4058EThis is Juana Leno's copy of a 1902 vessel which she made in 1994.  She wrote on the underside "canteen copy from 1902 12-6-94."

Juana Leno (1917-2000) Syo-ee-mee (Turquoise) - formerly Juana Louis Vallo - was one of the finest potters of the 20th century at Acoma Pueblo. She quietly worked every day producing extraordinary pottery without seeking acclaim. She was a wonderful woman and very modest about her talent to produce such fine pieces.
