How It's Made

After each canisters and lids are molded and sculpted from raw clay they are ready to be cured using a two-bake high-heat firing process. The canisters are first baked in a high-fire kiln at 1700˚F degrees Fahrenheit. The 2nd bake is done at the same high-heat. This bake occurs after the artwork has been painted on and the protective glaze has tediously been applied both inside and out of every canister and lid. This glossy glaze protects the ceramic and hand painted imagery(allowing it to be both water and intense heat proof). The finish also draws out all of the colors and provides a true shine.

Artisan Story
Muertos Doggies, The Meaning Behind the Artwork.

The Muertos Doggie hand painted character is a Zenwaro signature design. These "jovial characters" featured on our various canister as well as other ceramic-ware we create are artisan painted by hand. A wonderful theme created in partnership with our team of talented artisans and inspired by our love for all animals especially Dogs and Cats, as well our infatuation with Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead). Both the colors and floral accents / patterns surrounding the Muertos Doggie character were derived from Talavera and Majolica artistry. This sacred and very old holiday is celebrated throughout Mexico. The true meaning behind Day of the Dead is often misunderstood, due to it's name and the skeletal art that surrounds the festivities, the beautiful essence of this holidays exists in paying homage and celebrating a loved one's entire life.

Dia de los Muertos, A Celebration Honoring Both Life and Death.

The old and beautiful tradition of Dia de Los Muertos is to honor and celebrate dear friends and family who have passed. Pets are considered both friend and family to many, and it is heartbreaking to say goodbye. We created these treat canisters with the Muertos Doggie so you can honor your furry loved one not just on November 1st and 2nd but each and every day!
