Native American Authentic Horse Hair Pottery:
The ancient Indian tribes made this pottery to honor a favorite horse or to celebrate the birth of a horse. This pottery is very time-consuming and hazardous to create. The pottery is poured, fired for a period of time after which it is removed from the kiln, hair from the mane and the tail of a horse are placed on the pottery. The hair creates the dark lines and the smoke from the burning hair creates the darker grey areas. The pottery is then returned to the kiln where it finishes firing. When the firing is complete, the pottery is removed from the kiln, spray-glazed and etched. Each piece of pottery comes with a certificate of authenticity. This certifies that the pottery has been handcrafted by a Native American Indian artist and identified by a tribal census number.
