Figure height 4.3 cm, length ( side view) 5.7 cm. Why was this figurine born?  It's hard to answer.  I love animals, but I've never made a deer before.  Decided to try.  When the deer was ready, it seemed to me that something was missing.  And made the Buddha on horseback.  Then I came across information that historically, it was in the Deer Park that Gautama Buddha gave his first teaching. In addition, deer are fabulous creatures for me, graceful and kind.  I hope you love deer too. The Buddha on the Deer is made of natural clay. A detailed and interesting figure. The color in reality may differ from the color on your monitor.  This miniature sculpture is a  perfect addition to your tea ceremony, as the figurine is not afraid of boiling water. If you will often water with dark tea it may darken,will get a different shade. Be careful - do not drop this mini sculpture, it is fragile, and do not give it to children as a toy

Ceramic bowl diameter 2.95 -3.15 inches, height 2.28 inches, capacity 80 ml. The frog is a harbinger of spring rains and the awakening of nature.  I call this bowl the HEATER OF HEAT. When, after hibernation, the frog woke up, climbed a tree in search of the warm rays of the sun to warm up. Outside, the bowl has a wood texture. It seems that the frog is sitting on a tree and striving to reach its top. Inside, the color of the wood is the same, but here the glaze has laid down so that it reminds me of the sun ( seen in the photo). The bowl and the frog are made of clay. They are covered with engobe and food glaze. Food safe. The bowl is very tactilely textured, but the frog is smooth. This is a great option for unity with nature and admiring an unusual bowl with its inhabitant. I am sure that lovers of beauty will appreciate it.  The bowl will be carefully packed and safely shipped in the original box. Thanks for your interest in the figurines. Please, feel free to ask me any questions about the item and contact me to see more close up pics of any details you want.

 I present to you my vision of the teapet seductive Kitsune. Figure height 7.2 cm, base width ( front view) 3.9 cm.   In Japanese folklore, foxes possess great knowledge, long lives, and magical powers. Other abilities commonly attributed to the kitsune include the ability to inhabit other people's bodies, create fire, appear in other people's dreams, and the ability to create illusions so complex that they are almost indistinguishable from reality. Some of the tales go further, speaking of kitsune with the ability to bend space and time, drive people insane, or take on such inhuman or fantastic forms as trees of indescribable height or a second moon in the sky.  The figurine is made of natural clay. The hair is highlighted with a black glaze. The color in reality may differ from the color on your monitor. A perfect addition to your tea ceremony, as the figurine is not afraid of boiling water. If you will often water with dark tea it may darken in some places, get a different shade.  But be careful - do not drop this mini sculpture, it is fragile, and do not give it to children as a toy.

Figure height 1.73 in, width 1.14 in. Daruma ( Bodaidaruma) is the founder of the Chan (Zen) Buddhist school. The aim of the Zen practice is to open the eye of the soul and see the basis of life, the desire for inner purification by refraining from vice and material goods.   Daruma is very pleasant to the touch. Close your eyes and imaging that you are holding the sculpture in your hands. Will seem that you have a nice little stone of the correct ergonomic shape… like a pebble from the sea. You can feel it especially clearly on the rear side, where the cape is practically without folds...It’s a very pleasant tactile sensation. And then you open your eyes and you see one of the Chinese and Japanese deities. It is magical feeling. Give Daruma with the wishes to achieve the wisdom, peace and enlightenment. This is unusual tea pet for gongfu tea. It is made of two types of clay - red and white. The details (eyes, eyebrows and beard) are painted with white and black engobe. To highlight the pupils, a drop of black glossy glaze is applied on the pupils. It makes Daruma very lively.  Get the real pleasure of owning a single copy of such a famous character in Asia.
