This is a striking carved jar by Les Namingha. The shape of the jar is round with a slight indention before the neck. The neck is fully painted with orange bird wings and a linear maze design. The shoulder of the jar is carved with stylized Hopi birds with raised corn patterns and pointilism painting inside each bird. The base is carved with a complex maze pattern, similar to on the rim. The jar has a very modern style with very ancient designs. Les is a descendant of Nampeyo and learned to make pottery from his aunt Dextra Quotskuyva. It is signed on the bottom.
