Martha Arquero Vintage Cochiti Pueblo Pottery Frog antique acrobat toy Checking dimensionsMartha Arquero (1944 ) is a well known Cochiti pueblo artist best known for her "frog storytellers" like this one. She is the daughter of Damacia Cordero, also widely known for figurative pottery, as are her sisters Josephine Arquero and Maria Laweka.
