This jar by Alice Cling has a high shoulder and a square mouth.  The entire jar is fully polished and then it is outdoor fired and the stunning variation in the color are from the smoke and fire.   The fire clouds on this jar are stunning with areas that range from deep red to black.  The piece was covered in pine-pitch after the firing, a continuation of the traditional Navajo pottery when pitch was used to make the pottery water proof. Alice has won numerous awards for her pottery and been featured in books such as “Legacy of Generations.”
