Boy height 2.13 in, width 1.50 in. A smiling Chinese boy with a sacred fish in his hands is one of the sweetest sculptures of my creative workshop. In Chinese and Japanese everyday life the figurines of children, especially boys, have a large and pronounced symbolism. Netsuke Karako (a Chinese little boy) is the wish of a male heir who would occupy a high social position and thus will bring prosperity to the family. Karako is considered a benevolent symbol, bringing happiness, luck and well-being. In addition to this, the joyful boy is depicted with the sacred fish Tai, which on its tail brings happiness. The baby and the fish are made of red terracotta clay, covered with black glaze. The glaze did not color the figure but only emphasized the lines. The boy’s robe is covered with bright yellow-orange glaze. In front of you is a very beautiful original product. This figurine will be a beautiful gift with wishes for happiness, harmony, well-being and a speedy replenishment in the family. This is unique lucky tea pet for Gongfu tea, birthday gift. All our products are copyrighted. They are and will be in a single copy. Each product has meaning and philosophy.

I use engobe and high-quality glaze to finish the figures. Clay is burned twice at 960 and 1080 degrees Celsius in an electric kiln designed for firing ceramic products. Clay and glazes are led free and food safe.  

Figure height 2.17 in, width (front view) 2.00 in. I like music. While listening to the next track, I thought: "I need to try to make an unusual beatmaker." A few days later, the idea came true. Before you is a forest beatmaker Hare. He stuffs the beats on a classic drum machine. Such a figurine is the only one in the world, I have not seen any analogues. I am very happy with the result. Unfortunately, only a connoisseur will be able to understand the figure and appreciate it. DJ Hare wears a Japanese haori shirt with an embroidered Hotei logo on the back. On the head is a trendy bini. The beatmaker is holding a drum machine. The figurine will be a cool gift for a composer, arranger, DJ, record producer. It is also an unusual tea pet for lovers of the gongfu tea ceremony. The hare is made of clay, covered with engobe and the details are highlighted with black glaze. All materials from which the figurine is made are natural and safe. The product is not afraid of water, but it does not need to be washed in the dishwasher. The hare is very cute and cool, but fragile. The hare figurine will be well packed in a designer box. You will also receive a product passport as a gift (a sketch of a hare drawn by me).  Thank you for your interest in my products. I will be glad to see you again in the Terracotta GRYF workshop. Best wishes, Igor (author and craftsman).

The height of the figurine 2.60 in, the length of the horse 2.99 in. The figurine of a child on a horse is one-piece, made of clay, the shirt is covered with white food glaze. According to my idea, this is a figurine of a Chinese child on a wooden horse with a traditional Chinese pattern. I think it turned out very nice. Children love to ride horses, so I decided to make such an unusual miniature figure. A little about care - the figurine is not afraid of water, but it does not need to be washed in the dishwasher; it is fragile, so please do not give it to children as a toy. This figurine will be well packed in a designer box. You will also receive a product passport as a gift (a sketch drawn by me).  Thank you for your interest in my products. I will be glad to see you again in the Terracotta GRYF workshop. Best wishes, Igor (author and craftsman).

 Hedgehog height 1.38 in, length 1.77 in. Getting into your hands, Hedgehog and his friend Snail only evoke positive emotions! Nice texture not prickly but expressive needles, smiling face, black kind eyes and big ears. Hedgehog is a symbol of self-defense. In Feng shui  the Hedgehog is a symbol of security, openness, friendliness and joy. Prickles pierce the world of darkness and either defeats it or gives it a jolt. Ancient legends say that Hedgehog is wise enough, and even God listened to his advice! In China, such an animal is associated with kindness. Hedgehog brings joy and prosperity to the house. The Snail is a symbol of patience and perseverance because of its slowness. Time (the burden on the shoulders) does not deprive the Snail of the ability to victoriously raise antennae above its head. Due to the horns appearing and disappearing, the Snail is considered a symbol of the cyclic nature of the processes. It is also a symbol of time and evolution. Through the labyrinth of the clam shell spiral, man comprehends the meaning of time. Because the Snail always hides its body in the house, it is a symbol of modesty. This feature reminds about thrift and even greed - «I carry everything with me». I’ve also given this product its own individual meaning. For me, above all, Hedgehog and Snail are a symbol of friendship and alliance between the two personalities. And what he can become for you is for you to decide. In any case, unusual and lovely sculpture. It will please you or it will be a beautiful gift with meaning for your loved ones. It is made of three types of clay. The main one is white, but after two burns it has become a slightly beige (sandy) color. The eyes and nose of the Hedgehog are made of black clay. Its legs and the sink of the snail are made of terracotta clay. To accentuate the texture of the leaf, a glossy black glaze was applied to it, giving the effect of depth. If you look closely, you can see the pores. All our products are copyrighted. They are and will be in a single copy. Each product has meaning and philosophy. But if you want, you can give it your own personal history and name. The products are made of Ukrainian clay but using a small amount of Spanish clay.

   Figurine 22 mm high, 83 mm long. The turtle is a symbol of heavenly protection, longevity and wisdom. It brings money.    The turtle figurine is made of white natural clay. Completely hand-painted with different colors of clay. The eyes and claws are underlined with engobe. It was fired in a kiln at 1040 degrees Celsius. Therefore, it is not afraid of boiling water and will keep you company in the tea ceremony. In the palms, when stroking, its pleasant shell texture, porous head and scaly paws are felt. On the belly of the turtle there is also a relief and well-painted shell. Extremely realistic and cute figurine.    I can make a figure to order according to your sketch or I will make a sketch according to your wishes.
