Blue Corn is certainly one of the most creative potters of her time with a varied use of clays and firing techniques to create her distinctive pottery.  This is a classic long-neck jar with a round shoulder.  The area above the shoulder is painted with 28 feathers. They encircle the jar and each is symmetrically painted.  The jar was fired a deep black coloration.  It is signed on the bottom in the clay, “Blue Corn”.   It is in very good condition with no chips, cracks, restoration, or repair.  The high polish and glossy surface are striking on this jar!
