From the Collection of Nick and Suzanne Nicholas. 1987 Santa Clara Black on Black Etched Bowl by Merton and Linda Sisneros, measures 2.5 in. x 2.25 in., Merton and Linda Sisneros (Santa Clara) are a married couple each with a long heritage of pottery in the family. Together they carry on family traditions, and include the family crest (a triangle to symbolize three generations of potting) on their pottery. The couple does a few of the traditional carved pots, but mostly makes painted black on black and red on red. They are one of only a few potters in Santa Clara who continue to make the black on black pottery in the traditional manner. Merton Sisneros has won many awards for workmanship and is well known throughout New Mexico.
