$ 1,200.00

Harrison Begay, Jr. has won numerous awards over the years for his deep-carved pottery.  This jar has straight sides and is fully carved.  The jar has two bears on one side.  As the piece is turned there is a waterfall and then a hummingbird and eagle feathers.  There is an additional waterfall.  All the designs are either polished or matte.  The highly stone-polished surface creates a strong visual distinction between the matte and polished surfaceNote 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 was fired a glassy black.  The jar is signed on the bottom in the clay, “Harrison ’25”.
