Edna Romero

Native American, b. 1936

Romero is a member of the Naranjo family of potters headed by Rose Naranjo. Based in Taos, Romero uses the mica-rich clay of the region to make lustrous pottery in the style passed down to her from her progenitors. Like Rose, Edna’s creations are expertly proportioned and relatively undecorated in a manner that balances traditional forms with modern sensibilities.
