This jar is by L. Charley Begay.  The jar is coil built and has a handle.  It has been traditionally fired and covered with pine pitch. There is a raised relief design on the rim of the jar.  It received a second place ribbon at the 1969 Gallup Inter-Tribal Ceremonials and the artist’s name is on the ribbon. The jar comes from the collection of Richard Spivey, known for his books on Maria Martinez.
