15-019 horse hair fired ceramic order vessel

Wheel-thrown, burnished with terra sigillata, & horsehair fired ceramic vessel.

Approximately 4 3/4" high x 7 1/2" diameter.

In horsehair firing the piece is heated in a propane kiln and removed when red hot. Individual hairs from a horse's tail are then pressed against the piece's surface, resulting in black carbonization markings.

Because this piece is somewhat porous, it should not be used for food or liquids. order
