Santo Domingo Pueblo in New Mexico is renowned for its historic and traditional pottery, including bowls. Potters there hand-coil vessels from local elastic clay, then apply a cream or buff-colored slip and paint bold geometric, floral, bird, or abstract designs—often in black (from bee plant pigment) with accents of red or terracotta. The base is frequently red-slipped, and the overall style emphasizes strong, blocky, symmetrical patterns with effective use of negative space, giving many pieces a striking, almost modern abstract look.
