PINECONE & TROUT
GARDEN TOTEM
Original ceramic sculptures stacked in a totem composition, to brighten up any part of your garden or patio.
This totem was inspired by the Colorado Rockies. It is loaded with whimsical polka-dots and stripes, a sculpted Rainbow Trout, and topped off with a ceramic Pinecone, so real that even the natives are fooled.
measures --
33" tall x 4" wide (pinecone)
big green leaf is 13½" wide
Trout is 7½" wide
These original ceramic Totems are hand-built from low-fire clay using slab construction. They are fired to a bisque temperature, then glazed and fired again to a colorful waterproof finish that will not fade in sunlight.
For the most part they are weatherproof, with the exception of hail. I have several that have been outside in my garden for more than 3 years, “planted” under a huge pine tree. While they have been buried under snow & rain, I’m sure that the tree has sheltered them from the hail. **that said, I would recommend bringing them inside for inclimate seasons relative to your area.
They are sold as a set of pieces that you can display in a variety of settings, center rod is not included, available at most home improvement or hardware stores.
Outdoor installation -- drive a section re-bar or tomato stake deep into the ground and stack the pieces (you can stack them the way that I have in the photo or make your own arrangement)
Indoor (or patio) installation -- the pots that I used for the display photos are filled with concrete around a garden-variety tomato stake (easily obtained from any home improvement store)
