History of Cedar Mesa Pottery

CEDAR MESA POTTERY

A Leader in Preserving Native American Heritage since 1981.

Native American pottery (or Indian Pottery) has a rich heritage indeed.

The beginning of agriculture about 2000 years ago enabled the previously nomadic Indian peoples to settle down. The birth of Native American pottery was a natural corollary to the process of gathering water, storing grains, liquids, and preserving seeds for the next planting.

The craft of southwest american pottery culminated in the development of cooking pots, water jars with indented bases and large storage vessels for grains and liquids. Other more ornamental pieces also evolved such as the Wedding Vase, Wind Bell, and Bear Fetish, each with their unique purpose and mythical association to the native culture.

Surprisingly, Native Indian pottery was developed without the potters wheel the Indian potters relied solely on their skillful hands and used the painstaking method of coiling and pinching. Over the centuries, Native American pottery has flourished in different styles depending upon the location.

Cedar Mesa Pottery, situated on a high desert plateau at the foot of Blue Mountain, specializes in unique carefully hand crafted and Indian Hand Painted pottery that embodies our rich Native American Heritage. We invite you to participate with us in preserving this heritage.

Cedar Mesa Pottery is the source of Native American Pottery or Indian Pottery. A lot of pottery looks Native American. Cedar Mesa Pottery is different. It IS Native American. Each piece is hand crafted using modern techniques and signed by a Navajo pottery artist. And each piece comes with the exclusive Cedar Mesa Pottery Certificate of Authenticity.
