Eastern Bluebird Painted Ceramic Bird Guatemala

This ceramic Eastern Bluebird is made using locally dug earthenware clay. This is hand formed and pit fired. The fired bird is then dipped in a slip of paster-of-paris to smooth out the form’s surface and then carefully hand painted. The final step includes dipping in a wax to coat the bird and protect the painted surface. The bird has wire legs that may be adjusted and allows the bird to stand secure. Signed by the Morales family of artists. Fragile. NOTE: Please allow for small differences as each bird is hand formed, like the position of the head.
