Description

A whimsical one-of-a-kind raku pottery sculpture featuring everyone’s favourite poised Parisian skunk.  She’s done with forgiving and now she is serving divorce papers with the sweet scent of revenge.  Tired of years of her husband chasing after anything with a white stripe, Madame Le Pew is now looking for a new home.  Maybe you can help?

Kiln-fired using traditional raku techniques, the piece showcases the unpredictable beauty of flame and smoke, with glaze patterns that make every angle unique. Iridescent reds, smoky blues, and subtle metallic flashes ripple across the surface, created by the rapid cooling process that defines raku firing. No two markings are ever the same, giving this piece its own distinct personality.

Designed as both sculpture and conversation piece, it sits comfortably on a shelf, mantel, or studio display. The character evokes a nostalgic nod to vintage cartoons while remaining grounded in the earthy, elemental nature of handcrafted ceramics.

Equal parts humorous and refined, this raku skunk brings a touch of theatrical charm to any collection: part art object, part storytelling piece, and entirely unique.

Height: 3 inches / 8 cm
Width: 10.75 inches / 27 cm
