Kachhua Turtle Nerikomi Ceramic Figurine - Blue Octothorpe
- Solid clay: heavier than it looks, and it stays put
- Yellow octothorpes through the indigo shell, not painted on
- Low and flat, so it lives on a desk as easily as a shelf
- Part of a four-turtle family
Mon-Fri: 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM (IST)
A stout little turtle with an indigo shell scattered with small yellow octothorpe, four dark feet planted firmly, heavier than it looks.
Kachhua is the turtle, and this is a stout one: indigo shell scattered with small yellow hashtags, four dark feet planted firmly, and heavier than it looks because it is solid nerikomi clay all the way through. The hashtags were built into the clay one at a time before the turtle was formed. It sits low and flat, which is why it ends up holding down a stack of paper on someone's desk. One of a family of four that were plainly meant to travel together.
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.
