$ 1,600.00

Harrison Begay, Jr. has won numerous awards over the years for his deep-carved pottery.  This jar has a corn plant on one side.  The opposite side has a raven.  Separating them are bands of water and cloud designs.  It is very tightly carved into the clay. The jar is highly polished and fired a deep black.  The polished sections stand out more in contrast to the black matte areas.  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, “Harrison”.
