One of the most loved common garden birds and year round song bird, there seems to be a connection between people and this small bird.
Much folklore, myths and tales surround this little creature.
Some say, can be a symbol of good luck, happiness and re-birth.
In Celtic folkore, the Robin is known as 'The Oak King of Summer'.
These Robin sculptures have been fired to a frost proof temperature which makes them safe to use for outdoors, but is equally at home pushed into the pot of an indoor house plant.
Robins also sing all year round, their Winter and Spring songs being different.
Each Robin is made with the same weight of clay, but each one is unique, so have been listed separately.

Hand modeled, these Robins start of asa solid ball of clay, from which emerges the tail, head and beak, finer details such as eyes, indications of wings and feathers made by impressing marks made with a variety of tools and textures.
When leather hard, white slip has been painted on the chest area as a bright background for the red under glaze which is painted on after the first initial firing.
Deep, amber brown stoneware glaze along with the other colours and stains are applied before a final kiln firing taking the Pot Robins up to a high temperature making these bird sculptures frost proof so robust for outdoors.
This Garden Robin measures approx 6 cm in length, 4 cm at the highest point and approx 4 cm at its widest point.
Overall height inclusive of pine wood and linseed painted dowel rod is 32 cm.
Designed by Susan Wade - French in Falkirk, Scotland.
