Adams, Sadie (1905-95)
Sadie Adams
Sadie Adams was famous for the variety of her pottery shapes along with her intricately painted designs. Each piece was coil-built, painted with bee weed and native clay slips, and traditionally fired. She was a cousin of potters Lena Charlie, Irene Shupla, and Patty Maho, and a niece of Paqua Naha (Frogwoman). She also taught her daughter, Lorna Lomakema, to make pottery. Her Tewa name meant "Flower Woman/Girl" and so each piece is signed with her hallmark which is a flower.
