Polar Bear and Flower Hand Made Ceramic Sculpture

▍ About This Piece Softness is My Strength In the frozen wilderness, the polar bear is a symbol of immense power; yet, in this sculpture, it chooses to reveal its softest side. By gently cradling a flower, it tells a story of balance—reminding us that we can be strong while remaining nurturing and kind to ourselves. Each piece is 100% hand-pinched by Denise without the use of molds. The underglaze painting technique creates a watercolor-like texture, capturing the "imperfect beauty" of a hand-crafted soul. ▍ Creator’s Intent Love Yourself Like an Animal I was once an office professional who forgot how to breathe, lost in the cycle of efficiency until pottery taught me to slow down. I chose "animals" as my subject because they live entirely in the moment. They don't judge themselves; they simply listen to their bodies—drinking when thirsty and resting when tired. I hope this polar bear reminds you: "Self-love is as simple as an instinct. You don't always have to be tough. Your softness is, in itself, a form of strength." ▍ Product Features One of a Kind: 100% hand-sculpted and hand-painted; no two pieces are ever the same.
