ehmmm... tel me more about it it's WHAT? Horse Hair? What ever you did, it looks beautiful!

Artist Reply: Hi Olga, In Horse Hair Raku the pots are taken out of the kiln while they are still very hot and strands of horse hair are laid on the piece. As the hair burns off it leaves black carbon lines on the pot. Thanks for the feed back. Cathie
