How It's Made

The "Loving Doggy" is inspired by those furry companions who just want to love and cuddle us. No matter their size, breed, short haired or long and curly. We designed this Devotion Doggie with no specific breed in mind, it is simply an artisan made to represent the personality of all dogs.
This collection of lovable sculptures are designed by Zenwaro in collaboration with the master ceramicist Rafael Pineda in Jalisco Mexico. Each of our Devotion Doggies were designed with a different theme in mind, all of the sculptures have unique accents and sculpted elements that complement their character and authenticity.

Every sculpture, every figure is individually hand-molded from raw earth then fired within a large traditional red brick kiln that is heated naturally by wood. Every sculpture is hand painted in a variety of colors. Some colors are intensely vibrant, others more earthly in tone, some are embellished with bright silver and gold metallic paints. After the illustrative process pieces are loaded back into the kiln for the final bake. Forever bonding the colors with the clay. The Devotion collection is a true combination of old world craftsmanship & whimsical artistry.

Artisan Story

Zenwaro's collaborative relationship with the artist and master ceramicist, Rafael Piñeda, began 12 years ago. His experience with terracotta began at a young age, under the training of an uncle who was sculptural artist also working with terracotta clay. Rafael’s immediate family does not lack talented ceramicists, both uncles and one aunt are accomplished ceramic artists. 

Rafael’s mentoring uncle was visually impaired and years later became completely blind. But the lack of sight never halted Luis's devotion for sculpting, rather he continued working until his death in 2019. Rafael cures/bakes all of his pieces in a wood-fired kiln, he has resisted the urge to convert his production model to a gas-fired, modern kiln. Rafael’s creativity observes the "traditional way" where he can control every aspect of the firing process.
