Description
I am proud to present a stunning example of art in pottery. Raku Art and Art Zoo are very unique collections of figurines and home décor ceramic pieces. Beautifully crafted, this piece will certainly complement your collection. These are high quality pieces, and surprisingly heavy.
This amazing piece, the Lion & Lamb (one size), is 3.25 inches tall (8.25 cm.), 6 inches long (15 cm.) 4 inches wide (10 cm.) and weighs 18 ounces (505 grams).
Note: The piece on the photographs is representative of the one for auction/sale. Due to the fact that this pottery is hand painted and so many different colors are utilized, the number of color combinations is almost endless, which makes it very difficult to have a set of images for each one. Please let me know if you would like specifics.
Absolutely Awesome Attire and Art
African Express Certificate of Authenticity : African Express certifies that each piece of Raku Art and Art Zoo is hand crafted in Africa and all designs are the originals of our artists. Every piece is individually shaped out of clay and fired in a kiln for 12 hours. Hand painted and utilizing an ancient technique called Raku Firing, they are placed in a gas kiln and heated to 950 degrees centigrade. When the clay reaches this temperature, it is removed from the gas kiln and placed in a bed of Sawdust. The sawdust smolders on contact with the clay causing a unique crackling pattern on the glaze. The result is a beautiful collectible piece of Raku Art or Art Zoo.
I have come across other African Raku pieces and I can vouch for 2 facts: 1) Not all Raku is created equal 2) As with most things in life, you get what you pay for.
Raku Art and Art Zoo have an entire collection of land and sea animals, from butterflies to whales. Many figurines are made in different sizes to suit most budgets. Collectors and decorators world wide recognize Raku Art and Art Zoo as pieces of art with deep history and meaning. Please email me with any questions. I can also provide photographs of the other items and if I do not have a particular piece in stock I can order it for you.

My Sales Policy I do my best to accurately describe items. With the exception of the exquisite Raku Art and Art Zoo South African pottery and the gorgeous Bulgarian handcrafted Lalo Orna jewelry, accessories and home décor, most of my other merchandise has been gently worn so it will probably show the normal wear and tear appropriate for its age. Please take this into consideration. This is also why, unless I note otherwise, merchandise is sold as is.
