Pug Black Hand Painted Ceramic Heart Super Seconds

Small, squishy-faced and absolutely convinced the world revolves around them. It must be a Pug. 😂🐾

This characterful hand painted Black Pug ceramic heart decoration features a little black Pug standing proudly in the snow, wrapped up warmly in a red scarf.

With its glossy black coat, distinctive wrinkly face, little folded ears and unmistakable curled tail, the design is individually hand painted by me in my Shropshire studio. Raised white details create falling snow and snowy drifts beneath those little paws.

Finished with a white organza ribbon for hanging, this handmade ceramic heart would make a lovely Black Pug gift, Christmas decoration or special keepsake for someone completely besotted with their Pug.

Why is this a Super Second?

This Black Pug 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 not to find a home.

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 although judging by that stance, this little Pug is pretty certain he's magnificent. 😂🖤🐾
