This striking Rainbow Trout sculpture is a one‑of‑a‑kind piece with bold presence and beautifully varied surface detail. Hand‑sculpted and measuring approximately 13.5" long, 6.5" wide, and 4" deep, it captures the movement and character of the fish that inspired it.
Created by artists Alan and Rosemary Bennett, the piece is reduction‑fired in a gas kiln, a process in which oxygen inside the kiln is intentionally limited. This reduced atmosphere encourages the glazes to react in dramatic, unpredictable ways—deepening color, enhancing metallic tones, and creating the atmospheric surfaces that define the Bennetts’ work.
Suitable for indoor or outdoor display, this Trout brings a sense of motion, light, and quiet drama to any space.

About Alan & Rosemary Bennett
Alan and Rosemary Bennett draw strong inspiration from their experiences in and around the water. Their creative process begins with a series of sketches, which are then transformed into primary forms using stoneware, clay, or porcelain. These forms are hollowed out, and detailed features like porcelain teeth and eyes are added. Afterward, the pieces are bisque fired, then glazed through dipping, spraying, and brushing techniques. Finally, the works are fired a second time, using methods such as Raku, reduction firing, wood firing, and other specialized techniques.
