This is an intricately carved miniature jar by Linda Cain. Linda is a daughter of Mary Cain and the mother of Tammy Garcia and Autumn Borts-Medlock.  The jar has a striking round shape with a carved avanyu as the design. The neck is carved with asymmetrical feathers.  She has created a distinctive contrast between the matte and polished surfaces.  For such a small piece, she has carved deeply into the clay, which is always more difficult.  The jar is signed on the bottom.
