Description |
Small round jar with flat base, rounded lower body, and very tall slightly constricted neck; Interior and exterior surfaces have been scraped smooth on lower half of jar and final 1.5 cm of the neck, while coils on remainder of neck have been scraped smooth only on the interior, leaving the exterior surface unmodified; Exterior and upper portion of interior of neck have been coated with piñon pine pitch; Artist’s initials “LVB” are incised on base. Note: Initials “LVB” on this jar do not coincide with Lorena H. Bartlett’s initials, suggesting it may have been made by one of her daughters, Lula Bartlett or Lavina Bartlett. |
