Wallace Nez is known for his intricately etched pottery.  He began to make pottery when he was 12 years old.  He won first-place ribbons at the Santa Fe Indian Market in 1999, 2000, and 2001 and Best of Division at the Museum of Northern Arizona Market Show in 1999.  This seed jar is exceptional in detail.  On the top is a realistic buffalo and eagle.  Separating them are tiny feathers and cloud designs.  Around the neck are more tiny angular designs that create an optical illusion of depth in the piece!  The sides have arrow designs.  Near the base is an incised Navajo basket as the design.  Wallace took the time to etch each row and each coil of the Navajo wedding basket!  The piece has incredible detail and precision!  It seems to be one of those pieces that the more you look, the more detail and design you see!   The piece is signed on the bottom “Wallace Nez”.  It is from 2015.  It is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks, restoration, or repair.
