It is not often that we come across the pottery of Maximiliana “Anna” Martinez, who was a sister of Maria Martinez.  This jar is a very round shape with just a slight neck.  The design is a prayer feather pattern which encircles the piece.  The design has a very modern use of the space with lots of open polished surface and lots of thin lines.  The jar is in very good condition with no chips, restoration or repair. There are some light surface scratches and there is a slight lean to the shape.  The jar is signed on the bottom in the clay, “Anna”.
