POTTERY PETS Hand sculpted to your design
Your dog in any pose
How to Order
I will ask the type of sculpture, the position, size and finish you want. The end product will be modelled from your description and photos so that your sculpture will please you for many years to come and of course, you will own a bespoke piece.
If you wish for a true likeness to your pet and in it's true colour, several photos will be required taken from every angle, preferably in good light.
It would be wise to order well in advance if it is to be a present for a certain date.
How do you go about it...?
I
like to have contact with my clients from the outset so that I
can ensure I am working to their requirements and sometimes make
suggestions on size and angle to get the best from their chosen
sculpture. Initially a phone call from a client will be to discuss the
model they might want and I usually hear about the things their dog (or other pet) does, and learn something of their personality. Next, the client would send photos, or if they
have seen a model on the website and would like a similar one, a copy
of that model would be ordered with their own pet as the subject..I will ask the type of sculpture, the position, size and finish you want.

What if you don't have a photo...?
Sometimes
because your pet is no longer with you a photo can't be provided.
However, sculptures can be made without photos. If you have a specific
subject in mind please feel free to enquire. Often a very good
description or even one old photo will be good enough to work from.Where to put it...?
Display
may be a key factor in deciding the size of your commission. For
example, you may have a particular table, cabinet or shelf in mind
which will best display your model. You may want it to match a
particular photo and be displayed alongside, to complement a picture or
photo frame.How long will it take...?
Because
of the work involved, and time needed to create each piece, an accurate
time cannot always be given on when your model will be completed, but
an estimation of several weeks would be minimum.It would be wise to order well in advance if it is to be a present for a certain date.
How will I get it...?
Sculptures
will be sent by UPS delivery service, or if you have ordered from an
agility show, you may possibly collect your order from a future show
(to be arranged)Postage Prices...
Postage is to be paid by the client and cost will be fixed at £25 per model. The actual average cost is never less, and usually more, but for clients to work out their overall cost it is simpler to fix a price. Pottery Pets will cover the additional cost.
