Swallow ornament colored with Japanese paper, hanging decoration type

This is a ``swallow'' ornament that is familiar to us and often seen in towns. This swallow is shaped out of clay and colored by pasting colored Japanese paper onto its surface, making it look like a three-dimensional version of a Japanese paper tear-up painting. Not only the wings and belly, but also all the details such as the pattern on the head are colored with washi paper. This work is a hanging ornament that sways cutely when you touch the swallow. This work was created with the image of a swallow flying dashingly. We would be happy if you could display it at the entrance or on the table and spend a peaceful time. ◇◆Colored with Japanese paper◆◇ This piece is made of stone powder clay and colored by pasting hand-torn Japanese paper onto its surface. (It has an image of ``a three-dimensional version of a Japanese paper torn picture.'') It is expressed using the color of the washi paper itself, without using paint or other means of coloring. (Excluding some fine patterns.) The color of the work is modeled after the actual motif of the work, From over 130 types of Japanese paper, you will choose the one you think is best. While reproducing the beauty, cuteness, and uniqueness of the real thing as faithfully as possible, Taking advantage of the gentle colors and textures unique to Japanese paper, I strive to create works that are better than the real thing. This product creates a gradation of blue-black feathers by layering two different types of Japanese paper, navy blue and brown. In addition, by layering white and black washi paper cut out in circles, we added color to create crisp eyes. After coloring, it is finished with a water-resistant varnish. In addition, because it uses lightweight stone powder clay, it has a very light and durable finish. ~About the specifications of the work~ -Materials: Japanese paper, stone powder clay, china clay, Stainless Steel steel wire, varnish ●Size: [Swallow body] Height approx. 2cm x Width approx. 5.5cm x Depth approx. 5.5cm [Base] Height approx. 8.5cm x Width approx. 5cm x Depth approx. 5cm / [Weight] Approx. 45g (including the base) ~ Thoughts on creating works ~ Handicrafts are easy to reach, familiar, and blend into everyday life.
