Little chick made of cotton hanging with a basket of eggs and flowers
This tender chick is inspired by Victorian images and is entirely handmade.
The little characters in this series are born from my imagination, and are created in several stages. Every little detail is studied to strongly characterize the characters.
It will be a precious gift for you or someone special. Usable all year round, it will tenderly decorate a nursery, a children's room or a delightful corner of the house. One will be enough to embellish your Easter decorations.

Each object is a unique piece. . The measurements are indicative, each animal is created starting from a metal wire without a pre-existing structure.

The consistency of the object is similar to papier-mâché, but it is a very different technique. The toy is light and resistant, hard to the touch and with a very material aged texture. If it were to fall it will not break, however pay attention to the small details that could come off.

It will be shipped protected with paper inside a small box. The attention to detail of the packaging will make the gift even more special.

The technique used is ancient and was born in Germany in 1800. It involves the use of cotton wool to create small ornaments and toys. In my personal interpretation I use metal wire, paper, fabric and other materials that can help me shape the object, such as modeling clay and small components in various materials. The character thus formed will be covered with cotton wool using natural corn starch glue, colored with acrylic colors, decorated in several phases and then aged with a natural protection. The entire process takes days. The created object is light and resistant. However, you have to pay close attention to the small details, accessories, and additional decorations it may have.
It is not a toy and is therefore unsuitable for handling by children.

ECO FRIENDLY: these items are made using recycled materials and natural products as much as possible, such as corn starch instead of glue and water-based colors. They are packaged and shipped using only paper and other recyclable materials.
