This is a large jar by Daniel Begay. The piece is coil-built, carved, stone-polished, and traditionally fired. The jar has a low shoulder and straight sides. It is fully carved with a turtle that has a spiraling shell. The remainder of the jar has a double waterfall and geometric designs. Areas are stone polished to a high shine and create a striking contrast of matte and polished surfaces on this jar. The style of carving has a beveled appearance to the angle of the cuts into the clay. The jar is signed on the bottom in the clay, “Daniel Begay”.
