Holiday Ornament | Gingerbread House
These gingerbread house ornaments will make a beautiful addition to any Christmas tree or holiday decor. They are each hand painted using porcelain white “slip” and each is uniquely decorated.
Each ornament has a variation in design and rustic coloring.
Ornaments are available in three size options:
“Small” measures approximately 1.5”
“Medium” measures approximately 2”
“Large” measures approximately 2.5”
This piece was rolled out using a slab roller, then cut and any added features were done in the “leather hard” stage. It then was dried completely over a few days and bisque fired to 1940F. After cooling completely, glazes were applied and it received its final firing to 2232F. Each firing takes a minimum of 24 hours to complete. The entire process from start to finish for a piece takes about 2 weeks.
All of my pottery is food-safe and non-toxic. It is dishwasher, microwave and oven safe. To protect your pottery, never expose it to extreme or drastic temperature changes between cold and hot.
Because all of my pieces are hand made, there may be slight variations in coloring and textures giving each a unique character that is functional and beautiful. Use it well, and enjoy.
