The classic story teller pot above - the lady with several children in her arms and lap - is from the Cochiti Pueblo in New Mexico. This is the Pueblo where the story teller pottery originated. It is a classic style and is very recognizable as Cochiti style.
Here are some more pictures. 1. another view of the frog pot 2. the display shelf with the new frog pot - see the duck pot in the middle and the bird pot on the left. Oh, there's a little snake in front of the duck and bird and there are two quail in the left back corner. 3. mudhead pot I got for Christmas 4. top shelf of my display case - sorry the light is glaring. The pot left of the book is a rain maker pot, pretty rare.

LOL! I realize I SAID I was going to post the mudhead pot in the first post - but I didn't post him till the second post. Hope I didn't confuse anyone! My Christmas presents were the frog pot, the mudhead pot and the story teller necklace. I just posted the other pots for fun!
Sorry for the confusion.

I love the way you set up the display case! It's like a museum, filled with such interesting things!
The storyteller necklace is amazing. It is so beautifully made! What is the meaning of the necklace, or of the storyteller dolls?
