Little Houses Of Fruit. Kiwi, Peach, Star Fruit Ceramic Wall Sculpture.
Little Houses of Fruit. Kiwi, Peach, Star Fruit ceramic wall sculpture. It is inspired by the concept of seeds and what comes from a seed. A seed which produces food, which gives not only nourishment but ideas and growth and prosperity. The seed is a powerful thing that God has provided us with. This piece started out as three, 3 dimensional sculpted tiles. I begin with a slab and build a house frame and then I build into each frame a propotionate fruit or vegetable. Whatever the theme is. Once I have them glazed and kiln fired I place them into a wrought iron frame and place premade mosaic tile around and between the sculpted tiles. The mosaic tiles represent leaves, vines and seeds. It all gets' grouted in to make a bold and whimsical art piece to be placed in your kitchen, garden shed or on a garden wall. It is indoor or outdoor art. Dimensions: 8" L x 16" w x 2.5" d. It comes with a wire on the back for hanging and weighs about 6 lbs. It can be hung with a regular picture hanger. Designed by Robin Chlad, Made in Tucson, AZ. It is part of the "Seed Pod Series" Robin has recently designed. Enjoy!

Great service
This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.
I am a ceramic artist. I sculpt, hand build, throw on the wheel, and design hand made tile. Some of my work is functional, some is for art's sake. All of it is my passion and a gift from God.
I have 30 years of experience in clay alone. I consider myself a person that can do anything (in clay). I have many years experience in custom work, working together and creating one on one designs for clients. My designs are fun and whimsical and I enjoy making people smile. I am all about original. My inspirations come from gardens, nature, southwest desert, and other peoples art or creations.
In all my years in business, I have never had anyone complain, or need me to come back to fix something, or return a custom piece. I have letters of referrals and note cards of overjoyed thanks.
