Product Information

This hand made, hand painted sculpture of a white lioness with her cub is from Raku Pottery in South Africa.

From humble beginnings as a small craft operation, the production of this Raku pottery now employs over 45 people from a small town outside of Capetown in South Africa.

All the pieces are handmade and hand painted before being fired at 950 degrees celsius. They are then placed in smouldering sawdust which blackens the crazes. This process is largely uncontrolled and the slight imperfections that appear in the glaze make each piece unique.

Dimensions: approx. 22cm long

Note: Each sculpture is unique and therefore items ordered may not have the exact same "crazes" as the picture shown.
