There is so much to admire in the detail, from the tiny hand-impressed markings to the contrast between the warm, earthy stoneware and the glossy, inky blue glaze of the fish.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThere’s something so lovely about imagining the person who made her, carefully shaping and carving every little detail by hand. She feels almost like a character from an old seaside folktale, and I think that’s what makes her so special.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eShe bears an impressed maker’s mark which appears to read ‘PD’, but despite spending quite some time researching, I haven’t been able to identify the artist. I would absolutely love to know more about her story, although I think there’s something rather wonderful about the mystery too.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA truly remarkable, one-of-a-kind piece of ceramic art, and one that deserves to be treasured. I can just imagine her hanging in a little cottage by the sea, although she would be equally beautiful bringing a little of that seaside feeling to a home much further inland.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLength: 27cm x Width: 20cm \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hiraeth Vintage","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57633051967863,"sku":null,"price":165.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0707\/4240\/9513\/files\/BD99E862-F965-4903-8608-E6CFBEEAF5C5.jpg?v=1792680416","url":"https:\/\/hiraethvintage.co.uk\/products\/vintage-studio-pottery-mermaid-wall-plaque","provider":"Hiraeth Vintage","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
