This is an old Hagen Renaker 'Sheriff' foal sculpted by Maureen Love long ago. Hagen Renaker was a well known pottery located in California that recently closed in 2022 after a long and beautiful run that started back in the 1940's. This particular piece was likely produced in the 1960's or 70's based on the simple eye decoration. A client approached me and told me this piece had two broken legs and a broken ear. It is not a bisque, it is already glazed. But she knew I did kiln repairs on both bisqueware and already glazed pieces. Once fired, it is NOT a restoration to it's original factory finish condition but becomes a 'custom' because there is no way I can precisely replicate the original glaze sheen and color using modern materials and a much smaller electric kiln. With that understood I only custom reglaze such pieces to create new, one of a kind finishes. So here is her baby after the first firing to kiln repair his breaks. I have now fine tuned those repairs, filled in tiny cracks, and am now discussing any changes she may want to the mane and tail before I clear glaze and move onto china painting. Eventually this baby is destined to become a dark bay with silvery baby sheen. Such pieces are valuable collectables. Because this is a very delicate and difficult thing to do, I am currently the only person in the world doing it successfully as far as I and any of my associates know. I have not yet published step by step details on how to do it but I will be later this year on my own website.
