Jemez Pueblo Miniature Storyteller Figurine — Signed FL, Hand Painted
Delightful miniature Jemez Pueblo storyteller figurine, hand sculpted from natural clay and signed FL on the underside. This piece portrays a traditional storyteller with three children, each with expressive open mouths symbolizing oral tradition and the passing of stories through generations. Hand painted in earthy red, black, and white tones, the figure’s robe features a turtle motif — a symbol of longevity and protection in Native symbology.
At only 0.75 inches in diameter, this miniature showcases exceptional craftsmanship and detail despite its small scale. Jemez Pueblo pottery is highly sought after for its continuation of storytelling traditions, making this a wonderful addition to any Native American art collection.
