These are the pots that were shown in my video called “10 Coil Pot Ideas From the Ancient Southwest“. In that video I showed these pots as examples of ancient pottery forms that would be challenging to recreate. Please give them a try yourself and afterward take a photo and upload to Instagram with the hashtag #ancientpotterychallenge

When I made the ladle – I fired the small balls for inside the handle first before putting them inside the handle. I made the balls a teardrop shape putting the point into the clay inside the handle (like a stick pin) – after I fired the ladle, I jarred the ladle knocking the balls loose to rattle inside. Your suggestion on firing little test tiles is what made me think to do what I did. I have enjoyed all your information you provide. Thank you so much for sharing.
