Horse Chestnut lovers... Get Excited!!

Even to the naked eye, this handmade porcelain horse chestnut sculpture looks impossibly like the real thing. The proportions, six layers of glaze, and hand-positioned spikes form an object that is perfectly true to life - right down to the graceful pewter twig. Part of the husk is removable, revealing a pair of beautifully polished chestnuts inside. Like their natural counterparts, each sculpture is slightly different, a unique piece to be treasured by any nature lover. Handmade in England by Lorraine Taylor and Nicky Smart of Penkridge Ceramics.

And you can own one of your very own for only $350!!
