This jar is a new design by Ida Shamie. Her work utilized traditional Navajo imagery for her patterns. The jar has four rug patterns painted on the shoulder using bee-weed (a plant) to create the black. The neck of the jar is polished with a red clay slip. Separating the rug designs are etched mesa patterns. The jar has been traditionally fired. Ida is a daughter-in-law of Priscilla Nampeyo. She has won numerous awards for her pottery at events such as Santa Fe Indian Market. She is the only Navajo potter creating this unique style of ethnographic pottery.
