Lot Details & Additional Photographs
Six Southwest Pueblo storyteller figures, created by the coil and pinch method, four signed from Jemez, two by the acclaimed Fragua family, and two figures from an undetermined pueblo.

Tallest 11 in.; smallest 3 1/2 in.

A Virginia Collector

Storyteller figures have their mouths open to represent the passing down of stories orally as is the pueblo tradition.

Good condition but for the tallest with a hand break.
