Sgrafitto Miniature Jar with a flat base and spherical form, detailed sgrafitto motifs are "portrayed against a grey-toned background [as is] an ’ancient one’ and a realisticially designed grizzly. At the side of the bear are two sketched and cream-highlighted Mimbres fish, and at the side of the ’ancient one’ is one sketched and cream-highlighted Mimbres fish.

Sketched and cream-highlighted atop the water is a medallion depicting the 1993 yearly symbol of a ’wolf print’ and a small open-winged, realistic, butterfly-the symbol of beauty."
