This beautiful ceramic pottery is hand-etched and painted by Diane and Wilbert "Junior" Aragon. This particular piece has a notched top or "kiva top" and a cricket (which symbolizes springtime) etched into the front of the pot.
Diane and J.R. specialize in handcrafting ceramic pottery using comtemporary styles. They hand paint the pottery and hand etch designs of kachinas, kokopelli, animals, feather patterns, and other unique designs on ceramic pottery. They fire their pottery in a kiln. Then, they airbrush the pottery with a beautiful glaze to give it that contemporary style they are famous for pioneering. They craft many different shapes and sizes of pottery. They sign their pottery as: J.R. and Diane Aragon, Acoma-Laguna Pueblo, N.M.
