This is an early ar by Lorraine Williams. The jar has a sharp shoulder and elongated neck. It is a very traditional in shape and design. There is a raised rainbow desgin on the neck and shoulder. The jar was traditionally fired and then covered in pinon-pitch. The pitch is a reminder of the historic Navajo pottery when it was utilitarian. The jar is signed on the bottom in the clay, “LW, Lorraine Williams”. It is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks, restoration, or repair. I left on the original price tag of $85.
