Bernice Naranjo is known for her distinctive etched pottery. She is married to Tito Naranjo and is a sister-in-law to Dolly Naranjo, Jody Folwell, and Michael Naranjo. She is the mother of Dusty Naranjo and Caroline Elliot and the grandmother of Johnathan Naranjo. This bear is coil-built and the back is fully polished. Half the bear is plain and the other half is etched. There are two bear paws and water designs etched into the clay. The bear was fired a brown coloration. It is signed near the base with her hallmark, which represents her name in Tiwa, meaning “Stripe Rock”.
