Two small owl figurines, their feet cleverly fixed to real tree branches—Osaki Toru\'s ingenuity imbues the entire piece with lifelike vitality.The ceramic owls are full and rounded in shape, incredibly lifelike. Their facial features are sculpted with remarkable realism; the exaggerated, sharp lines around their eye sockets complement their bright, clear eyes, cleverly blending the owls\' alertness and cuteness.This piece is made of coarse-grained clay, retaining its rustic, natural minerality. The surface utilizes Osaki Toru\'s signature white glaze technique, combined with a scraping process, to give the feathers a rich, three-dimensional texture. The meticulously painted scale-like feather patterns on the back and wings retain the raw texture of the coarse pottery; small and exquisite, it is a beautiful tabletop ornament.Owls are one of his most frequently created and most mature themes. Among his many animal works, owls, penguins, and capybaras are the iconic images that first come to mind for collectors.These two owls are about the size of a 3XL egg sold in a supermarket.
