This ceramic piece was hand built with Longhorn Red Clay. Includes white slip and mesquite bean stain. It was fired in an open fire. This piece includes a ring like stand placed on bottom for showcasing and leather accents for decorative accents. 

Harvested locally from West Texas. This (1bottle) 17.5 ml. mesquite bean stain for pottery will render a black color when added to red earthenware clay. If you add this organic stain to a white earthenware clay it will not render dark black. But, if you add it to a white clay slip that is over a red clay you will get a dark color. 

From the mountains of Uvalde, Tx home grown and processed in Concan, Tx. This powder (cochineal) is ready to use. Just add gum Arabic or alum.
