"With the celebration of their 25th Anniversary, Artesania Rinconada introduced their Silver Anniversary collection. Each of the designs in this collection are accented with gold and platinum glazes.
In colorful details, this new Artesania Rinconada Silver Anniversary Lion #709 is crafted from beautifully sculpted ceramic. The finish is highlighted with richly colored glazes and accented with platinum and 18k Gold.
Each Artesania Rinconada ceramic sculpture is hand-carved and detailed from fine grain earthenware ceramic material. The sculpture is fired and then decorated with a hand application of enamel colors and glazes to accent and highlight individual design characteristics. Each enamel glaze is then re-fired individually in order to preserve it's distinctive coloration.
Because variations occur in carving style and paint selection of each piece, no two figurines are exactly the same. This results in each figurine being a unique piece of collectible art.
