Jemez Pottery

Jemez pottery is known for its earth tones, stone-polished finishes, and painted designs. The Jemez Pueblo is located in New Mexico, and the pottery is influenced by the Zia Pueblo, their neighbors. 

Jemez pottery was lost during the Spanish conquest of the American Southwest.  The Jemez abandoned pottery making in the early 18th century.  Pottery making was revived in the 1920s and 1930s.
