This collection was inspired by beautiful prehistoric pottery taken from ruins in and around the Mimbres River valley area of southwestern New Mexico. Over 7000 pieces of this wonderful pottery, most produced between 1000-1150 A.D. have found their way into museums and private collections. The Mimbres potters worked freehand, using brushes made from the stiff pointed leaves of yucca plants. The hair ties are for both men and women.
