I like the Chorotega pottery, and people have enjoyed receiving them as gifts when I bring them back to the USA. <br /><br />In museums of pre-Columbian art they will sometimes show examples of very old pottery from Costa Rica and it contains the same colors and looks similar to the Chorotega Potter than they still make in Guaitil and San Vicente. The pottery is usually identified as Nicoyan, since it comes from the Nicoya peninsula.<br /><br />The best collection of pre-Columbian Nicoyan pottery we have found was in the Denver Art Museum.. The St. Louis Art Museum has a good collection of pre-Columbian pottery, I think largely donated by Morton May, and it would not surprise me if it contains some Nicoyan pottery.Dave-CostaRicaDailyPhoto.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02567583999945259422noreply@blogger.com
