Navajo Horse Hair Pottery Native American Hand Crafted Pot JX122920

Pot measures approximately 5" tall, 4-1/2" wide and is 14" in circumference (around its widest point).

This fascinating Native American horse hair pot was hand etched with traditional designs and boarder patterns by artist Cecilia Benally. The pottery is hallmarked by the artist.

This charming style of Navajo art is called horse hair pottery because actual horse hair is added to the pot at just the right moment in the firing process to melt the hairs into the pottery, creating incredible and spectacular designs.
