Hand Built Ceramic Cats
We model and build our hand built ceramic cats using specially selected grogged clay. After making the basic body shape they are sculpted and details added before they are bisque fired to a temperature of 950 Celsius. Glazing and hand decoration follows before a second firing up to 1250 Celsius. This process ensures they are weatherproof and suitable for outdoors - garden, patio, wall or roof.
This is Samson - first in progress
and now completed
As they are individually hand built and coloured, each one is unique and can't be replicated in every detail. Subsequent models will be generally similar but variations, especially in colouring, are to be expected.
Cost is dependant on the size, complexity of the modelling, decoration and glazing required. Please contact us to discuss and we will explain what we currently have available, your options and the likely timescale to produce.
