(2cm tall) This very happy and contented forest kami kodama spirit is made from natural argile clay and painted in green and gold tones. These little nature spirits seem to come out of the clay sometimes; I try to make Jizo but these happen instead! They're full of life and growth and the quiet, peaceful joy of trees. He feels so alive to me, like he has one foot in his world and one in ours.

He's been coated in one coat of water-based varnish which will protect him from gentle knocks and scrapes. If you want him to be a bit more robust, let me know, and I'll be happy to add another coat of varnish for you. It will add more shine though, so be aware of that! He'll be happy to be carried around with you in a soft pocket, but please keep him away from coins, keys, and other scratchy things.

Through my work, I hope to bring a little nature, peace, and gentleness into the world.

I make all of my pieces entirely by hand with only natural materials. These white clay sculptures are painted with one coat of water-based varnish just for a little extra protection, however they are not waterproof or able to live outside. If you want yours to live in the garden, please contact me before making your purchase, and I’ll see what I can do.

(I am happy to combine postage on all items. Please either message me before you order and I can create a custom listing, or just order and I'll refund any excess postage fees. Thank you!)
