This is a highly polished and creatively designed jar by Jennifer Tafoya. The piece is square in shape with a short neck, and it is fully polished.  The jar was fired a glassy black and then etched with design.  The top has a Sinopterus, Pteranodon, Thalassodomeus, Preondatylaus, and two Rhamphorhynchus.  It is genius how she created the design so that it looks they are flying over water and you are looking down at them. Of course, the bottom has the fish as well.  Exceptional jar in design and detail!  It is signed on the bottom in the clay, “Jennifer Tafoya”.  Jennifer continues to be one of the leading innovative potters working today!  She most recently won the “Tony Da Award” for innovative pottery at Santa Fe Indian Market in 2019 and “Best of Show” in 2023!
