Category: Pottery | Posted by | Thu, Aug 11th 2016, 1:35pm
Lu Ann Tafoya, a daughter of Margaret Tafoya, certainly inherited the talent to produce beautifully sculpted jars with outrageously burnished surfaces. She has made jars almost three feet tall, a feat not easily accomplished. This globular-shaped jar has a beautiful deep red slip that was burnished to a high luster. There are four bear paw designs around the circumference.
