It is a beautiful deep dark red of the color seen in pre-1900 vessels. It is an exquisite jar with a bulbous body and a short neck. It is structurally in excellent condition.
Provenance: From the estate of Transcendental artist Florence Pierce of Albuquerque who passed away in 2007 at the age of 89.
