Evan the White Egret

$800.00

White china cuts in the most exciting ways for mosaic – long slender curves and strange angular shapes which can be impossible from any other ceramic. The feathering of birds is a natural progression. Allied with slate for the beak and a custom-made glass eye, the white becomes an egret.
Dimensions: 35cm H x 25cm W x 3cm L
