Description
Gunnar, a viking warrior hog and his sidekick are ready to defend whatever you wish to keep safe under the domed lid. Makes a perfect treasure box or butter dish or to serve a small surprise.
The shield has a soft green glaze. The dish or saucer is glazed with a clear glaze.
This is a unique one of a kind piece. You will receive the one as shown in the pictures.
{PORCELAIN}
I handcraft each piece from porcelain clay, known for its exceptional strength and translucency. This strength allows for delicate, thin designs. Porcelain requires a high firing temperatures. I fire my pieces at least twice: one at a low temperature before applying glazes, and a second at high temperature for translucency and glazing. Third firings are for decals/transfers or gold lustre. Natural porcelain is white, but pigments or stains can be added for color, which permeates the entire piece. Glaze is applied only to the surface.
{CLEANING}
Hand washing is always an option. It can also be washed in the dishwasher, be careful when stacking it.
{SHIPPING}
All my items come gift wraped, in this case in the gift box as pictured. This will go in to a box with bubble wrap or other protective material for shipping. For this I use as much recycled boxes, wrap as possible, to safe the environment and on shipping costs.
