Josephine Arquero is a daughter of Damacia Cordero and sister to Martha Arquero, Marie Laweka and Gloria Herrera, all of whom are recognized potters. Josephine specializes in figurative pottery-mostly storytellers, nacimientos, and animals.
This pottery owl figurine is signed with the artist's name but not dated, however, it was purchased in the 1990s from the artist at her booth in Indian Market by the current owners. The figurine stands solidly unaided but it is provided with a metal stand for more secure display.
