Why You'll Love This
  • Real height: it holds a shelf on its own
  • Dapples through the clay, not on the surface
  • Hand-modelled neck and head with a tilt all its own

A long-necked giraffe standing over an open bowl, dappled all over in soft brown markings worked through the clay. Tall enough to read as sculpture even when empty.

Twenty-six centimetres of giraffe standing over an open bowl, dappled all over in soft brown markings that were worked into the clay rather than painted on. The neck and head are modelled entirely by hand, which is why the animal has a slightly quizzical tilt. It is tall enough to read as a small sculpture even when it is completely empty, which is how it will spend most of its life. When you do plant it, a trailing succulent looks best.

Nerikomi: the pattern is built through the clay before the piece is formed, and every piece is cut by hand, so no two are identical.

The Story

Sculpture that occasionally holds a plant
