Vintage Navajo Style Horse Hair Spirit Bear Pottery Signed Tom Vail

This vintage Native American Spirit Bear is crafted using the traditional horse hair firing technique, which creates unique black carbon markings on a white ceramic surface. This style was developed and produced by the Vail family, who are associated with the Navajo Nation. Signed by artist Tom Vail on the bottom, the bear is embellished with colorful feathers, beads, and stick accents for a distinct folk art aesthetic. This hollow ceramic sculpture measures 5-1/2 inches long and 4 inches tall. This item sells as is. Please review all photos for detail.
