for more information. How to Order - Horse hair firing information After firing and cleaning I coat the piece with bees wax or acrylic wax to protect the surface. Horse hair works intended for decorative or dry storage use (ashes). You can care for them as you would fine woodworking. Keep out of extended direct sunlight and DO NOT place water in these vessels as it will ruin the finish. I am always creating new work and have many works not listed on this page. Please contact me for information and pictures/prices.
Horse hair and turkey feather symbolism The commonality that links all horse hair and feather meanings in many cultures is that using or wearing them, is a symbol for peace and tranquility. Horse hairs spiritual meaning offers a connection with divine energy and reinforces the spiritual power of the individual. It is believed to be a constant reminder of the person needing to remain in harmony with nature and the higher energy found in all elements. Turkey feathers also represent an ascension from this earthly world to another spiritual dimension- whether it’s heaven or not, so they are often seen placed on grave sites to honor departed loved ones who have gone on before us.
