Passionate about penguins!

The Splashy Ceramic Penguin is a cute little accessory for your home or garden. It is made in Horotiu, New Zealand at the Splashy art, pottery and tile studio and has been carefully hand painted by a dedicated team of artists.

Splashy artists use a special paint made according to a secret recipe that gives a distinctive bright tone to their works of art. This cute ceramic penguin figurine would brighten up any home or garden.

How Splashy makes their Ceramic Penguin:

• Soft clay is poured into a mould and allowed to set
• The soft clay is then gently fettled with a damp sponge
• The clay becomes ‘greenware’ once it has harden enough to be handled
• The greenware is then blasted in a bisque kiln for six to seven hours at 900 degrees Celsius.
• Splashy’s team of talented artists then carefully apply their secret paint to the product
• After painting, it is again blasted in the bisque kiln
• Then the product is blasted in the glazing kiln at 1160 degrees Celsius
• The Ceramic Penguin is now finished and inspected for any faults or cracks

The entire manufacturing process can take several days and produces a high quality ceramic product. No two Splashy products are ever the same as they are all carefully hand finished. Spice up your home or garden with the small Ceramic Penguin by Splashy.
