(4.5cm tall) Here is a gentle, kind Jizo figure who brings with them the quiet, stillness, and hidden joy of winter. They remind me to slow down, look around, remember the stars, and rest.
This Jizo made of stoneware clay, fired once, glazed in non-toxic glaze, and then raku fired for the beautiful effects of smoke and flame.
Jizo is a Japanese Shinto spirit, a kami who found his way to Japan through Buddhism. He is a guardian of women, children, and travellers; he comforts us through grief and bereavement.
Through my work, I hope to bring a little nature, peace, and gentleness into the world. I make all of my pieces entirely by hand with natural materials.
