Mushroom Bird House

Posted by tb4

Absolutely wonderful ceramic bird houses from Denver based artist Michael McDowell. Each one of these pieces is available from his etsy shop for $45.

Each gorgeous bird house is hand crafted and covered inside and out with Michael's non toxic glossy white glaze and topped with an exquisite white lichen glaze. It is fired twice, once as a bisque firing to drive out moisture from the clay and a second high fire glaze firing which ensures the birdhouse can withstand the elements. Just in time for your feathered friends this spring and summer, they make a great housewarming gift or a treat for yourself. A ceramic bead and hemp hanger are included for quick hanging.

Measures approx. 3 3/4" tall... 4" across cap. Get it here.
