It might look tiny, but with its overall length of 15 cm this small Bird lacks nothing an artwork by Elya Yalonetski offers. Hand-shaped from fine clay and finished with her unmistakable attention to surface and expression, it carries the quiet vitality of a living creature caught between stillness and flight.
The body is gently rounded, the wings folded close, the beak slightly lifted as if sensing an invisible breeze. Layers of soft blue, white, and gold shimmer across the glaze, creating the delicate illusion of feathers touched by morning light. In the subtle texture of the clay, one can trace the artist’s movement—the rhythm of thought turned into form.
This small sculpture embodies Yalonetski’s poetic realism: intimate, tender, and filled with silent character. It holds the gaze without demanding it, transforming a fleeting gesture of nature into something timeless.
Only the sculpture is shipped.
