Owl Under Night Sky Colorful Ceramic Decorative Plate, "Whimsical Owl"
This handcrafted decorative ceramic plate features a colorful and whimsical night owl sitting on a branch beneath a moonlit sky. Designed by Mexican artisan Maria Isabel Cruz, the plate is made using the centuries-old dry rope technique, in which a wax mixture made of magnesium oxide and fat are applied to the outlines of the image or motif prior to glazing. The wax mixture creates a barrier that keeps the different fill colors in the design separate during firing, before burning off to reveal the blackened ceramic beneath. The plate can be hung on a wall for display via the nylon cord on the back.

"Whimsical Cow Refreshing"





I just received my Whimsical Cow Plate. It is an item likely to make you smile. The cows expression is sweet. The colors are bright and cheerful. Of note: the background looked white on my computer screen. It is a mauve shade in person.
