Description
Mosslings are little stone monsters that grow moss on themselves and wander the forests collecting what they personally consider to be treasures, like mushrooms and crystals and leaves. They were inspired by artist Amy Breed's rainy walks up Blithedale canyon and into the forests of Marin.
They're the most intricate monsters yet, with mineral washes, underglazes, textured glazes, clear glaze, and raw clay. The moss is all handmade along with other decoration, and many of them have rock textures pressed into them.
