against a background of grey-brown driftwood, a raku ceramic shinto jizo sculpture that's a lovely eight shape that fits nicely in the hand. they're glazed in a bottom-to-top gradient of red-orange to mauve to violet to blue, and they have a kind, smiling face and the impression of two little praying hands. next to them on the left are a sprig of lavender and a red-orange poppy.

an image of four raku ceramic sculptures in four separate tiles. all against a background of grey-brown driftwood, they are (clockwise from top left): 1. a vaguely dome or egg-shaped night spirit glazed in a bottom-to-top gradient of violet purple to blue. it has a sweet oooo face, and two little arms across its front. there are plant and flower carvings around its base. 2. a radish spirit glazed in warm red (bottom) to white to green for the two leaves on the top of its head. it's very friendly! 3. a calico — orange, black, and white — cat spirit with a very sleepy face. 4. a small, peach-coloured nature spirit friend with a gentle face and plant carvings around its base. each scu[pture has flowers and leaves next to it: chives, borage, speedwell, violet, or green fennel foliage.
