Pit firing is the original method for baking clay that dates back nearly 30,000 years ago. This process is done typically in a hole in the ground, or a pit, pots are placed in the pit and burned. Pit firing is an atmospheric process where all of the colors and patterns are derived from the process. The artist applied seaweed and feathers during the firing which resulted in distinct color variation and shadows.
