6"w x 5.5"h

$ 300.00

Sue Williams is a daughter of Rose Williams and a sister of Susie Crank and Alice Cling.  This jar is coil-built, stone polished, and traditionally fired. The jar has a high shoulder.  The neck is carved into the shape of mountains.  The jar was traditionally fired to create the coloration on the surface and afterward covered in pinon pitch.  This was a traditional method historically to make the pottery waterproof. Today, potters continue this process as a testament to the past. The jar is signed on the bottom in the clay, “Sue”.  It is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks, restoration, or repair.
