Description

Caroline Lucario Acoma Polychrome Jar – Hand-Painted, Signed

A finely crafted hand-painted pottery jar by Caroline Lucario of Acoma Pueblo, New Mexico. This traditional polychrome vessel displays bold black geometric linework radiating into starburst patterns, accented by red-orange panels and encircled with stylized triangular figures. The jar demonstrates hallmarks of Acoma artistry, including precise symmetry, intricate linear detail, and strong contrasts that highlight both cultural symbolism and visual rhythm.

Caroline Lucario, part of the esteemed Lucario family of Acoma potters, is known for her finely balanced forms and striking painted surfaces. Her work follows in the footsteps of influential Acoma matriarchs, carrying forward centuries of Pueblo pottery traditions while adding her own distinctive touch. Signed on the base, this piece is both a collectible work of Native American art and a striking decorative object.
