This jar is an older example (made in the late 1980’s) of her more simple, carved work that features an avanyu (water serpent) The carving is soft and curved and flows round this small piece. The neck is polished as is the bottom. The carved serpent continues that work. It is a lovely example of one of her smaller creations.
