Greyhound White and Black Hand Painted Ceramic Heart Super Seconds

For the Greyhound who believes winter walks are acceptable… providing there's a warm sofa waiting at the end. 🐾❤️

This lovely hand painted black and white Greyhound ceramic heart decoration features an elegant Greyhound sitting amongst the snow, wrapped up warmly in a red scarf.

With its distinctive black and white markings, long elegant profile and wonderfully gentle expression, the design is individually hand painted by me in my Shropshire studio. Raised white details create falling snow and snowy drifts beneath the dog's paws.

Finished with a white organza ribbon for hanging, this would make a thoughtful Greyhound gift, Christmas decoration or special keepsake for someone who has fallen completely in love with this wonderfully gentle breed.

Why is this a Super Second?

This Black & White Greyhound heart is joining my Super Seconds Festival because the glaze has developed crazing during firing.

Crazing appears as a network of very fine lines within the glazed surface. It means the heart doesn't quite meet the standard I require for my full-priced ceramics, but it's still far too lovely to go to waste.

Please note that crazing is notoriously difficult to photograph. The fine lines can be almost invisible in some lighting and may only become noticeable when the glaze catches the light at certain angles.

I've tried to show the crazing as clearly as possible in the photographs, so please zoom in and look carefully at all the images before purchasing.

As each heart is individually hand painted, there may also be slight variations in brushstrokes, colour and detailing.

Perfectly imperfect and already wondering which sofa will be his. 😂🐾
