“My Kitchen is Everything Watermelon”

I have watermelon salt & pepper shakers, magnets, trivets, napkins, cutting boards--just to name a few items. (My vacation home even has a watermelon table cloth and loads of other watermelon designed pieces) I place this sculpture in a bowl with my lemons or whatever fruit I have out and it looks so nice! It is so beautifully carved and painted it stands out and gets lots of compliments...so cute!

“A Slice of Melon”

I love your fruit creations. In fact, I m saving up to acquire more pieces of fruit! Very well made and I love the bright color and high gloss finish. Thank you, Julio! All the best.
