Teresita Romero Pottery - C3671CTeresita Romero was best known for making large jars and storyteller-like figurines. She was active only from around 1910s to 1960s, so her pottery is rather difficult to find. I do not believe there are many examples of her pottery on the market as we have not had but two others of hers in the history of the gallery. 

 

Her grandsons, Mateo Romero and Diego Romero, have continued in the tradition of the Cochiti Pueblo artisans, but in a more contemporary and expressive manner than the family tradition.
