Beautiful Colored Horsehair Dreamcatcher Pottery by Navajo Artist Carol Benally.
Approximately 8.25 " tall. 5.5 " wide 2.25" opening.
Each handcrafted pot starts from a raw casting. It is then painted and in some cases, etched with a pattern and then fired. Horse Hair is then arranged along the pot before fired again. The cindered remains of the hair form the web looking designs on the pot.
