Pomegranate Niche Ceramic Ornament With Bird, Nest And Cross With Berries
Continuing my obsession with pomegranates I have designed a pomegranate ornament with little vignettes inside them.
I took the liberty of making this special "pom orni", as a spiritual token by placing a cross on the back wall of my basic "pinch pot" fruit. Just in front it, a white birdy snuggled in her nest. She must be a dove because doves make their nests in the weirdest places.
The outside of the orni is glazed candy apple red or pink. The inside walls are glazed in a yellow/mustard color. Or antiqued with brown.
Each one has a different scene. You may order them with any little critter you would like such as owl, bird, bunny, butterfly. Everything is made from clay, glazed and kiln fired. They are hung with gold and silver wires and strung with bronze, amber, or gold colored glass beads. Each one is handmade and vary slightly which gives it charm of coarse.
Size varies but approx. measures 3" h x 2.75" w x 2" d. The wire adds 2" in length.
It makes a nice gift for a Jewish ceremony and Channika or a Christmas Tree ornament. Pomegranates have biblical significance.
