Ceramic figures are decorative objects made from clay that has been shaped and fired in a kiln. These figures can represent a wide range of subjects, including animals, people, and mythical creatures. The firing process hardens the clay, making it durable and suitable for display. Often painted or glazed, ceramic figures can vary in size and style, from small collectibles to large sculptures. They are popular in various cultures and can be found in art galleries, homes, and museums. Notable examples include Delftware from the Netherlands and Majolica from Italy.
