Dogs At Pond Soap Dish

Porcelain soap dish with hand-sculpted, hand-painted portraits of dogs or cats on hand-textured, molded dish of my own design. This gloss-glazed piece is fired to almost 2400F with additional hand-painted detail colors fired to 1300F. This can be washed occasionally in the dishwasher, but gentle washing by hand is preferred. R I can sculpt your pets from your photos to create a very special functional keepsake. This is a unique gift for any pet lover. Colors may vary, but I will try to accommodate your color preferences. The piece shown here in the main photo is with 2 labs and is $125. 6 1/4"x 5 1/4"x 1 1/2"h or more.

Custom hand-sculpted portraits of people and/or pets in porcelain or white clay. They can be fully 3-dimensional figures or scenes in relief.
Working from your photos I can do realistic portraits of dogs, cats, or you. I make each piece by hand. Smaller figures are sculpted in high-fired porcelain, whereas larger pieces are sculpted in low-fired white clay. Each piece goes through 3 firings. All the colors are durable fired glazes (2380F) or overglazes (1300F) .
I welcome your inquiries.

    This artist has been wonderful to work with. My project was a ceramic replica of my closest and dearest friend, my dog Jack. She did the entire piece from pictures! She was very careful to ask me questions along the way to make sure the likeness was right. I am just so impressed with this artist. I have a feeling her work will be priceless at some point in her career… the likeness of my Jack is already priceless to me. There are many great artists at Custommade, but Laura is exceptionally gifted. I just couldn't be happier with the entire process!
