Description

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.

The products are made of Ukrainian clay but using a small amount of Spanish clay. I use engobe and high-quality glaze to finish the figures. Clay is burned twice at 960 and 1080 degrees Celsius in a muffle furnace designed for firing ceramic products. Clay and glazes are led free and food safe.

More from this vendor

Ceramic bowl with a frog is a unique handmade natural cup for enjoying tea or coffee.
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. Best regards, Igor (author and creator of the products of the Terracotta GRYF workshop).

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.

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.

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.

I discovered GRYF through a comment on r/tea, and went on to buy two figurines that resonated with me. Igor is a consummate artist whose work appears old and new, elegant and rustic at the same time. A true scholar's object for my tea table.

Igor's pieces are full of character and soul. His Running Rhino is my second tea pet from him, and just like the first, the figurine was shipped very quickly and safely, accompanied by a small rolled painting to match. These tea pets are fine art made by a conscientious man and reliable seller. Thank you, Igor.
