"The slip on the body of the jar is orange in color. According to Lanmon and Harlow, “Starting in the early 1920s, Zia potters began experimenting with a new overall slip color for their pottery. The surface is usually a strong orange-tan, on which designs in black and red are applied in patterns characteristic of the time, some incorporating traditional elements, some with distinctive new features.” [Harlow & Lanmon,2003:174] Also in that publication, the authors mention that “the main period for the orange-tan slip is in the 1920s.”
