      That would make Keith Brymer Jones cry. “It’s just beautiful… it’s your best work so far… honestly…” (incoherent sobbing).

        Seriously though, if their gift shop doesn’t have a replica coffee mug, they are missing out.

    The object was made with some shitty $0 clay, so, close enough.

        YES! My dog in law looks like the ceramic ones too. Through a series of events, dog in law came to live with us. He’s a good friend. That dog figurine reminds me he comes from a long line of good friends.

      “fuck-it-otry”?

      Maybe -ot and it’ll flow better without that extra syllable?

    Stuff it with paper or something until it dries, to keep the form?

    Wait, they did. And it still fell together?

      I’m betting the original clay has more particulate to fortify tensile strength and stabilize vertical reach, whereas the facsimile is “$2 clay” and largely polymer-thickened mud. 🤷🏼‍♂️
