The Vail family is well known for their contemporary style of pottery. Each piece of horse hair pottery is a one of a kind. The artist tosses Horse hair taken from the mane or tail of a horse onto the heated pottery while it is in a kiln. The resulting carbon being drawn into the surface of the pot creates original designs and patterns. The finished pottery is a unique marbled flare styled pot. The horse is highly regarded in many cultures, representing the essence of stamina, agility, beauty and strength. This pottery was created with those values in mind.
