This is a small jar by Mabel Sunn from the 1970’s. The piece is made using an paddle-and-anvil technique and twice fired.  The black designs are derived from a mixture of mesquite sap and cactus spines.  Today, there are very few Maricopa artists making pottery.  This jar has a mountain design on the sides and a patined rim.  The jar is signed on the bottom in the clay, ‘M. Sunn”.   It is in very good condition with no chips, cracks, restoration or repair.
