Mary Histia Pottery - C3740This Acoma jar is easily attributable to the famous Mary Histia as there are others of the same or very similar design that are documented as her work.  A very similar jar in the Museum of New Mexico Collection (45135/12) is identified as having been made by Mary Histia in 1951.  Another quite similar example from a private Santa Fe collection has been attributed to Mary Histia and had been made in the 1940s. Lanmon & Harlow 2013 [443,25.40]
