Pit Fire

After vases are thrown on the pottery wheel, the pottery is heated to great temperatures in an outdoor pit fire.

Applying the Hair

Once the vase is red-hot, it is pulled from the fire and hair is wrapped around it. What is left is a beautiful carbon design unique to the horse.

Finishing

The vase is then cleaned of debris and sealed with a UV protectant which preserves the design.
