Paqua Naha was the original 'Frogwoman' and the mother of Joy Navasie, the current Frogwoman. Paqua, which means Frog, signed her pottery with a frog hallmark. Her hallmark is distinguishable from her daughters because she used straight-line feet and Joy uses webbed feet. She was a respected potter throughout her productive life. Paqua, for most of her career, produced polychrome decorated wares on a yellow or cream slip. [from Adobe Gallery website]
