<p>[QUOTE=&quot;say_it_slowly, post: 4387754, member: 50&quot;]First I admit to smelling pottery sometimes. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/biggrin.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":D" unselectable="on" />It often does smell like dirt and if I suspected resin I would look for a plastic smell. I also want to use most senses, I want to feel it, look at it, I will sometime lightly tap it to hear it, smell it and if evaluating a small bit of broken pot, apply it to my tongue to see if it sticks to see if it&#039;s vitrified. I think I am a little crazy though so there is that<img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" />.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve been looking at the book <i>Southwestern Pottery Anasazi to Zuni</i> where it discusses Jemez. They went through some changes and hard times with their potting and even used some greenware back in the &#039;60s before going through much experimenting. They show one pot made by Carol Loretto from the 90s (doesn&#039;t say Carol Grace so could be a different potter I suppose) however of a different type than the carved pot, more like the second signed pot I posted above. No signatures or bases are shown.</p><p><br /></p><p>Maybe Taupou can help.[USER=45]@Taupou[/USER][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
