Subject: Pojoaque Pueblo Matte-finish Polychrome Seed Jar
Mary Gutierrez is a member of the Talachy family of Pojoaque Pueblo but I have been unable to find any significant information regarding her. One would assume that she was related to Minnie Vigil and Lois Gutierrez because their style of pottery is similar in shape, design, and finish, but I can find no connection between them. This seed jar was most likely made in the 1960s as that is when most of the pottery in this collection was purchased.
Condition: original condition with the exception of a small adhesive mark where a piece of tape was removed near the base of the jar.
Provenance: from the collection of Katherine H. Rust
