At seven inches tall with bold primary colors — blue, red, yellow, green, and warm brown — this is a figurine that earns its spot on a patio, a sunroom shelf, or a farmhouse windowsill without any effort at all. Unmarked, one of a kind in the way that all hobbyist pieces are, because no two painters finish a mold the same way.
A wonderful gift for the gardener in your life, or for anyone who likes a little cheerful personality in their décor.
Hobbyist ceramic molds like this one were a popular home craft throughout the 1970s and 80s, with painters producing one-of-a-kind finished pieces from shared, mass-produced molds.
