This jar by Margaret Tafoya is from the 1960’s.  The design is very deeply carved into to the clay and then it is stone polished.  The triangular designs are the sun rays while they are separated by cloud and mountain patterns. It is a more complicated design for this period of her pottery.  It is signed on the bottom in the clay, “Margaret Tafoya”.  It is fired to a dark black coloration.  It is good condition with no chips, cracks, restoration or repair.
