Rondina Huma (b. 1947) is a highly regarded self-taught Hopi-Tewa potter from Polacca on First Mesa, Arizona (Hopi Reservation). She is a member of the Tewa Kachina/Parrot Clan and has lived in Polacca most of her life after being born in Keams Canyon.  She began making pottery around 1973 at a neighbor’s urging and mastered traditional Hopi techniques without formal training. Her work is coil-built, stone-polished (often fully inside and out), painted with natural mineral and vegetal paints (like beeweed for black), and traditionally outdoor-fired. She makes jars, bowls, seed jars, and other vessels, frequently in polychrome styles (red/black on tan/yellow or similar).

Buying from more than one category? You only pay the highest rate in your cart, so eight fetishes and a pair of earrings ship together for just $15.
