This is a one-of-a-kind original whimsical colorful ceramic  Skull King (or calavera) ceramic Garden Totem. It has a beautiful blue theme with flowers, a cloud passing by and a metalic REAL gold fired crown. The perfect royal touch to show off your gorgeous garden or add to a patio/deck.

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 full direct sunlight.   They are sold as a set of pieces that you can display in a variety of settings. Center rod, pots and filler are 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 --  use a tomato stake (rubber coated hollow aluminum tomato stake, easily obtained from any garden center or home improvement store) plant it into a deep pot filled with sand or heavy rocks.

With this set up, it's all about the depth & weight so that your totem doesn't tip over (for the taller totems use a concrete base or welded rebar)
