      It's Native American, but Isleta, not Zuni. This particular style of pottery was first made in the 1800s, when a small group of people moved from Laguna to Isleta. They brought their Laguna-style pottery, white slip, and construction techniques with them, and changed the style of plain orange, undecorated, utilitarian ware pottery that had previously been associated with Isleta.

      The new potters made small, easily transported, pottery pieces designed for the tourist trade. First they made primarily bowls, but by the early 1900s they were making pitchers, vases, and other forms. The brief revival only lasted until around 1935, when the Depression had its effect on tourism. It does help date this type of pottery, though, since it wasn't made after that.
