This ceramic figurine of the king penguin looks up from a rest from his waddles. Guatemalan artisan Mauricio Morales hand sculpts and hand paints this lovely bird with meticulous detail to capture the species likeness.

This is absolutely beautiful! I?ve gotten several comments on it and they were all impressed. Definitely will be purchasing more from the artist as well as from Novica.

I bought this with the intention of giving it to my adult daughter, who has cute little animal figurines on her desk and peeking out throughout her office. But when I unwrapped it to make sure he hadn t been damaged during shipping, I couldn t put him down. I sat there like an idiot, smiling and rubbing my thumb over his smooth little belly. Needless to say, I sent him nowhere. He is mine! The artist did a beautiful job, and there some other figurines of his that I will be adding to my bird collection.

Many thanks Mauricio. Your birds never disappoint. I was going to order this to give to a friend, but decided I needed it more. This will join other birds on top of the antique secretary. The wires in their feet make it so easy to pose them.

Mauricio is a true artist. He paints these little birds to look quite life-like. Ive purchased 3: Red-tailed hawk, Chickadee, and Woodpecker. One is for a friend and the other 2--well, --theyre in my house so I see them every day. Only 1 thing--the Woodpecker is a different size than the others. Just FYI.

This is the sixth bird I ve purchased in this collection. Each is meticulously crafted and a joy to decorate with. I look forward to adding to my collection.
