Cochiti Pueblo, located about 25 miles southwest of Santa Fe, New Mexico, is renowned for its distinctive figurative pottery tradition, which emphasizes whimsical, three-dimensional clay sculptures. Among these, fish figures represent a charming subset of animal-themed works, often crafted to evoke playfulness, cultural symbolism, or everyday life in the Rio Grande Pueblo community.
