These ceramic butterflies are handmade ceramic sculptures. Each one is about six inches long by five inches wide, and each is unique in the sculpture and firing process. The firing process is a saggar fire, which holds its appeal due to its natural and earthy characteristics. A saggar fire is a contained box in a kiln filled with combustibles that mark the sculpture in unique ways. Objects placed in the saggar are usually salt, wood, leaves, metal oxides, and anything else that can burn. Each piece has to be made from a white clay and burnished in order for the smoke to mark the clay.
These butterflies can be custom made into any shape or size. However, the color and markings are all determined by the firing process. They can be made to hang on the wall or any type of panel even drift wood.

One of the things that people love about them are the shadows they project, either as singles or grouped together. They can be mounted in several different ways and forms, from placed on drift wood to wooden planks or metal pieces.
