$ 1,000.00
Harrison Begay, Jr. has won numerous awards over the years for his deep-carved pottery. This jar has a round shape and a short neck. The jar is carved with two dragonflies and two stars. Both dragonflies are polished, while one star is polished and one is matte. The rest of the designs are either polished or matte. The highly stone-polished surface creates a strong visual distinction between the matte and polished surface. Note as well the style of carving, which has a beveled appearance to the angle of the cuts into the clay. This is a very distinctive style of carving for his pottery. The jar is signed on the bottom in the clay, “Harrison ’03”.
