Southwest Pit or Barrel Fired Pots

Pit Fired Pottery - The word “pit fired” actually describes the process of making this type of ceramic. Borrowed from ancient man, these pots are fired in a “pit” in the earth. The fire is instrumental in forming the unique designs on the piece since there is no glaze applied to the pottery. Pit fired pieces are used decoratively or in ceremonies.

All Earth & Wheel pottery comes with a card explaining the process or use of the piece.
