CUSTOM messenger bird ornament in clay and wood

Description

Inspired by the idea of the Ancient Romans that birds are the messengers of the Gods, I have put my own spin this tradition- giving these little doves the responsibility of carrying these meaningful words and names on their backs for the holidays.
This design is a limited edition and will only be available during the holiday season.

A hand cut ceramic dove is adorned with a small wooden tag, which is hand stamped with the word or name of your choice. (Please note the maximum length for text is a total of 12 characters/spaces).

Order yours with a word that inspire you this holiday season, or don one with the name of somebody you cherish. The perfect gift for everyone on your list- you get to choose how to customize it!

Each ornament measures between 3 and 4.5" inches across. Due to the handcrafted process, each one is slightly different in size and shape.

The dove is made of white clay, fired in my kiln, and finished with a special protective surface treatment so that it will remain beautiful for many generations to come. It is designed to become an heirloom for you and your family.

Hole at the top edge of the piece has a silky cord laced through for hanging on the holiday tree or as a decoration elsewhere in the home. This cord also holds the wooden tag securely in place.

This listing is for ONE ornament, which will arrive in a lovely gift box ready for the holidays.

Please allow 3-5 days for this custom piece to be made for you before it ships.

Be sure to include your Custom Text in the "Message to Seller" box that is near the end of the Etsy Checkout process.* Please do this carefully, as I can not gurantee any changes that you make to your custom text once your order has been submitted...

Thank you, and have yourself a Merry Little Christmas.
