Handmade Ceramic Apple Sculpture - Large Realistic Fruit Decor

Apple changed many famous hands in the history of the world. This familiar fruit has a long history. From the apple tree, in paradise, the apple becomes a forbidden fruit in the hands of Eve & Adam. Years later we saw the golden apple in the garden of Esperas & then from the hands of Eris in the hands of Paris who will choose to give it to the fairest one the beautiful Helen. The apple becomes a prize for the athletes' victory, long before the olive wreath takes its place. Snowhite will fall into lethargy with a bite of the poisoned apple because she was the fairest of all. Much later in another garden, the apple that falls on Newton's head will be the cause to discover gravity. Today the company Apple will dominate the world with this first bitten apple as its logo. in my hands, the white body of the clay will find slowly its shape. When it gets baked will become my canvas where the colors of the apple will find their place. Lines, lights maturity or unripeness, & everything else that I read on apple's colors become a palette for my apples. & there are so many apples in this world The apple is a symbol of marriage, happiness, fertility, beauty, immortality, eternal youth, & desire, & we can offer it at every opportunity. The trip of every single ceramic fruit I make starts when a piece of clay, wrapped in my hands, ends up into an earthenware clay, shaped according to the fruit that I am about to make. For some particular fruit, I use a mold also made by myself. in the creative process, the protagonists are the four elements (Earth, Air, Fire, Water). I mix the water & the earth (clay) & I shape it into the desired fruit earthenware clay. Then I let it dry naturally in the air before I put it in a high-temperature oven (1040o C - F 1832) & allow the fire to make it hard & durable. I get inspired by nature around me, with the colors alternating through their times from the mystery that the fruits hide & their journey through time from one end of the earth to another. To make my fruits & nuts look realistic as they were in nature was a real challenge for me. in their skin hide incredible colors that they gain throughout their life on the branch. All the fruits I make are realistic with their own story & their symbolism. We can offer them as a unique & impressive gift, but at the same time very personal which will come to accompany our transformations in every occasion & moment of our lives. What makes my ceramics unique is that they are all handmade & that for some of them I use molds also made by myself. Finally, I also offer you a great variety of dimensions & shades. You can order the fruit & nuts that are displayed on my e-shop in the size & color that you prefer! Please note that the time that I need to prepare a new item is approximately two weeks.
