Description

Acoma Pueblo Wedding Vase by D.R. Lewis – Fine Line Geometric Design

This hand-coiled Acoma Pueblo wedding vase is signed by D.R. Lewis, a potter working within the celebrated Lewis family tradition of Acoma, New Mexico. The piece features the classic double-spout form connected by an arched handle, a shape long associated with ceremonial and symbolic significance in Pueblo pottery. Lewis’ work reflects the distinctive Acoma aesthetic—precise black fine-line geometric patterning radiates across the body, paired with stylized floral motifs and a bold matte black rim. The terracotta clay surface creates a warm contrast that highlights the crisp hand-painted design.

D.R. Lewis is part of the broader Lewis pottery lineage, a family renowned for reviving and refining traditional Acoma techniques. This vase represents that legacy, blending cultural heritage with a contemporary visual statement. A compelling addition for collectors of Southwest pottery and Native American art.
