Description: Pottery jar with a village on the rim. Native clay and natural pigments (mustard weed, iron oxide) applied with yucca brush. Stone polished and traditionally fired with sheep dung.

Juror's Comments: Innovating with open lip of traditional pot adds interest. Perhaps some improvement could be had in the slip coverage - somewhat uneven. Coloration of the slip on the pot inside is visible.
