"A little jewel
Sparkling as it circles
Shoo, you precious pest"

- Haiku for a fly

This ceramic wall mounted sculpture includes mixed media elements to bring this green bottle fly to life. Mounting hardware included. The sculpture can also sit on a table.

Title: Bijou II
Medium: Raku fired ceramic, wire, paper
Size: 3.5(H) x 9.5(L) x 6(W) in

What is raku? Glowing red hot ceramic pieces are taken from the kiln and placed in a material that catches fire, such as sawdust. They are then enclosed in a container with the flames. The lack of oxygen gives the glazes striking colours and patterns. Areas with no glaze take oxygen from the clay itself, leaving them with a beautiful matte black colour.

 

This is a one-of-a-kind sculpture. No others of its kind exist or will be reproduced.
