Description
Create your own Ceramic Wall Art ‘Fallen Leaves’ display for your living space. They look wonderful arranged on any wall. Whether it’s in your lounge area, kitchen, dining room, bathroom or your bedroom.
Each leaf is handpicked (foraged) from local arboretums and national trust locations. I then use these real leaves to make impressions in clay to produce my unique ceramic ‘Fallen Leaves’.
They are available in 6 popular designs:
Rustic Green Hornbeam Leaf
Rustic Green Common Oak Leaf
Orange & Green Spiked Oak Leaf
Autum Red Maple Leaf
Autumn Red Sycamore Leaf
Platinum & Green Hornbeam Leaf
Making Process
During the making process, I use a real leaf to make an impression in clay and then cut around the impression leaving a subtle border. Next, I manipulate the clay leaf to give an attractive ripple or curve mimicking the natural form of the orginal leaf. I use a wide firing range clay to make each piece and depending on the final colour variation, I fire the piece twice between 1055 – 1260 degrees. This allows different colours to mature in the kiln depending on the glaze recipe.
Product Details
Dimensions vary depending on the leaf used, so the largest ‘Fallen Leaf’ design is typically 13 x 15 cm leaf face. The smallest design is 8 x 10 cm leaf face. Essentially the Ceramic Wall Art ‘Fallen Leaf’ you purchase is a true reflection of the real sized leaf I used in the making process. I can make any size if you send me the leaf to use, or ask me to find a particular leaf. Anything is possible and I love making bespoke commissions!
Variations
Every leaf used in the making is unique, so this means every ceramic leaf is unique. I aim to match colours to the images shown as closely as possible, however there will be variations in shade and depth of colour. I always send customers images of the available items I have in stock so you will often have choice. If you are not satisfied with the images of the exact items I have in stock, I am happy to make bespoke ‘Fallen Leaves’ for you.
Care
Wipe clean with a damp cloth or gently dust with a feather duster (be careful not to knock the leaf off the wall though!). Avoid wetting the sticky loop attachment as this may loosen the loop. All you need to provide is the nail/screw in your wall.
Dispatch
In stock, ready made items will be dispatched within 3 days of order confirmation.
