Pot measures approximately 3" tall, 4" wide and is 6" long (front to back).

This beautiful style of Navajo art is called horse hair pottery because actual horse hair is added to the pottery at just the right moment in the firing process to melt the hairs into the pottery, creating unique and incredible designs. This Native American pot was hand etched with traditional patterns, by Navajo artist William Vail, creating a Turtle for a remarkable finish. In Native American beliefs, the turtle represents strength, female power, and fertility. The turtle is also considered to be able to defy death.
