Cochiti Pueblo Pottery Frog by Felipe Trujillo
Vintage Native American Cochiti Pueblo Pottery Frog by Felipa Trujillo (1908-1986), measures 2.25'' x 3'' x 3'' and is signed on the bottom, FYI: ''Felipa Trujillo (1908-1986) was a traditional potter from Cochiti Pueblo. Before there were storyteller figures, there were Singing Mothers (or ''Singing Ladies'') and Felipa was making them. There is a single piece that has been attributed to Felipa and it was made pre-1930, making Felipa one of the earliest of the modern era Cochiti potters. Her first storyteller figure appeared in the mid-1960's, right about the same time Helen Cordero produced her first storytellers.''
