Martha Appleleaf learned to make pottery from her mother, Carmelita Vigil Dunlap. Today she continues to create distinctive pottery with traditional designs.  This is a classic jar with a sharp shoulder and sloping sides.  The jar has feather designs on two sides and rain and lightning patterns in the other two sections.  It was traditionally fired black (the photos are ones I took of the firing).  The jar is signed on the bottom, “Marth Appleleaf”.
