Known for its hospitality and vibrant cultural traditions, Cochiti has a rich history of pottery-making that dates back centuries. Canteens\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cf1\"\u003e—vessels designed for carrying water with a narrow neck, spout, and often one or two handles—are a classic form in Cochiti ceramics, reflecting both utilitarian needs in the arid Southwest and artistic expression. These pieces are hand-coiled from local clays, slipped with white bentonite for a smooth base, stone-polished to a glossy sheen, and fired outdoors in open pits to achieve their distinctive polychrome (multi-colored) finishes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pf0\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cf1\"\u003e\u003c!--StartFragment --\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pf0\"\u003e\u003c!--StartFragment --\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cf0\"\u003eProvenance:  From the Len and Toni Wood Private Collection, Laguna Beach, California\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c!--EndFragment --\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pf0\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cf1\"\u003e\u003c!--EndFragment --\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c!--EndFragment --\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antique American Indian Art","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45976174264485,"sku":"5231-043","price":600.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/6071\/5685\/files\/5231-043_1.jpg?v=1760550983","url":"https:\/\/antiqueamericanindianart.com\/products\/cochiti-canteen-pottery","provider":"Antique American Indian Art","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
