Chubby Orange Cat / Ceramic Figurine / Shino Glaze

**Creative Inspiration**| This cat sits upright with its paws together, exuding an aura of perfect obedience and adorable chubbiness. It can serve as a delightful decorative piece, a chopstick rest, or a paperweight. .ᐟ.ᐟ.ᐟ **Dimensions**|Approx. 9 x 4 x 4 cm **Materials**|Clay / Shino Glaze **Firing**|Oxidation-Reduction Firing **About the Glaze**| Shino glaze is a feldspathic glaze known for its intriguing textures created during firing, such as "fire marks," pinholes, crawling, and crackling. Where the glaze is thick, it evokes the serene white of snow, while thinner areas reveal the warm, orange-peel texture of tangerines. Its smooth, jade-like touch is as comforting as a cat's presence, inviting you to touch it again and again. **About the Brand**| **TUO Ceramics** We lovingly shape clay, slowly mixing it to create unique pieces. We mold our thoughts and feelings into form, bringing a sense of ease into everyday life. We craft lifestyle ceramics inspired by cats, accompanying you in a slow, cat-filled life. Ceramic cats, gently sculpted. **Notes**| Each piece is hand-sculpted. Variations in glaze thickness and the interplay of fire, clay, and glaze during kiln firing may result in natural characteristics like air bubbles, spots, or crackling. These features, along with the deepening of lines through use, are all part of the natural encounter with the material and do not affect its usability. As the beloved author Kuniko Mukoda once said, "Moles and freckles sometimes constitute a person's charm." I believe ceramics are similar; their imperfections make them even more captivating and interesting. Each ceramic work is one-of-a-kind.
