The pottery comes from the local Navajo, Santa Clara, Anasazi, Hopi, Jemez, and Acoma pueblos. Each pueblo has their own distinct style. After a couple of days in Santa Fe, you'll be able to identify the origin of the pottery on your own.We liked the Acoma style, so we picked up some pottery made at the Acoma Pueblo. Like the hilltowns of Italy, the Acoma Pueblo is situated at the top of a mesa, originally built there as a defense against marauding enemies. Today, the intricately decorated and often symmetrical pottery is highly prized and displayed in many museums.
Wind River Trading Company sells more than pottery. You'll also find jewelry, clothing, belt buckles, blankets, moccasins and more at this store. When my son was 9 months old, we bought one of his first pair of shoes here - a pair of moccasins. Fond memories!
