$ 5,500.00

This is a classic high shoudler jar by Nathan Youngblood.  The jar is coil-built, carved, stone-polished, and traditionally fired.  The jar has a polished neck and base.  The design has one half with flowing clouds.  As the jar is turned there is a matte band with a walking bear paw design.  Below are eagle feathers that are polished.  Finally, there is a band of mesa and lighting designs, both polished and matte.  It is a creative design that changes as the piece is turned.  The jar is highly polished to a glassy appearance.  It is signed on the bottom, “Nathan Youngblood” and his hallmark name in Tewa, which means “Deer Path”.  It is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks, restoration, or repair.
