Handmade siren sculpture made of smoke-fired ceramic – Unique mythological art

This mythical creature comes to you securely packaged in recycled cushioning material, measuring 18x9x12cm and weighing 1.1kg.
Immerse yourself in the world of mythology with our handcrafted siren sculpture, artfully crafted from traditionally fired clay. This captivating bird-woman, created using the ancient technique of smoke firing, brings the mystical beauty of siren-like mythical creatures into your home. Every step of the smoke-firing process is carried out by hand, making each sculpture a unique masterpiece. The natural color variations created by the smoke firing give the sculpture an authentic and organic aesthetic. This siren art is not just a decoration, but a conversation starter and a work of art with deep cultural significance. Perfect for collectors of mythological animal figurines or as an original gift for lovers of traditional craftsmanship.
My clay sculptures and jewelry pendants are less replicas of excavated treasures than my own intuitive interpretations. I allow the creation of each piece to unfold naturally, always inspired by my knowledge of the Neo- and Paleolithic periods, as well as by my extended stay in mystical England many years ago.

Each of my manufactured pieces is 100% made by my own hands, without the use of molds, stencils, etc., and is therefore unique, which is further enhanced by the random coloring during the firing process in the fire.
My works are not glazed but receive their silky matte sheen through polishing with agate before firing, which enhances their beauty from within.
Working with clay and then firing the pieces in fire grounds me considerably - I would be very happy to share this feeling with anyone interested in my pieces.

I am happy to implement commissioned work or my own ideas for a specific piece of work, provided it is compatible with my way of working.
Feel free to contact me about this.
