It features hand-coiled clay vessels that are stone-polished, outdoor-fired (often producing fire clouds), and coated with melted piñon pine pitch (sap) while still warm. The pitch creates a distinctive glossy, dark-to-golden-brown or reddish sheen, seals the porous clay (historically for holding water or food), and can leave a characteristic aroma.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antique American Indian Art","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50540500254885,"sku":"260902-32","price":170.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/6071\/5685\/files\/260902-32_1.jpg?v=1790568624","url":"https:\/\/antiqueamericanindianart.com\/products\/navajo-pitch-pot-pottery-by-k-j","provider":"Antique American Indian Art","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
