Full description
This kingfisher, posed in flight with outstretched wings after a successful dive for a fish, has been needle felted using woollen fibres. The fibres are bound together and sculpted into shape using a barbed felting needle. The initial shape has been made using white core wool and then a top coat of blue and orange merino wool fibres added with appropriate markings around the head. The tail and wings of the kingfisher have been formed from pieces of stiffened wet felt and the leading edge of the wings have been wired to enable them to be shaped as required. The legs are formed from wire and the eyes are beaded. A beak made from silk clay has been added with a small grey needle felted fish held within it.
The kingfisher has been mounted by means of a transparent perspex rod onto a rustic wooden base. The kingfisher is roughly life sized with a wingspan of 29cm (as posed) and the ornament as a whole measures approximately 25cm tall.
Please note: this is a collectable ornament. It is not intended as a toy. It contains wire and small parts that could cause a hazard to small children.
Designed by Roz Legge in Dorset
