Pueblo Pottery Minis

images from the past brought into the future

Inspired by the pottery of the North American Pueblo tribes, we offer these hauntingly beautiful Southwestern designs. The ancient craft tradition of making clay pottery by hand is, for the Pueblo, a direct expression of their belief in being one with the earth, as individuals and as a people.

Our Pueblo Pottery journals feature details from contemporary Acoma and San Ildefonso designs, adapted from patterns developed long before the Europeans reached North America. Acoma pottery is renowned for its thin, white walls, emblazoned with repeated geometric patterns that fit the exact shape of each vessel to create intricate optical illusions. San Ildefonso pottery is treasured for its exquisitely detailed matte-on-black-polish designs.

These smythe sewn books feature luminous, tactile covers, a magnetic flap, memento pouch, ribbon page marker and lined cream paper of archival quality.
