Docile and humble, this sculpture of a donkey is entirely handcrafted of layered coiled ribbons of gres, and hand painted with white enamel and light blue accents on the tail, mane, and hooves. Deeply rooted in the Neapolitan culture, where the donkey is symbol of hard, honest work, this sculpture is a tribute to this docile animal used by farmers to reach otherwise inaccessible areas of the ledges on the Amalfi coast. This sculpture will enliven any modern home with its original and refined quality.
