Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the illustration fails to fully convey the glossy surface and texture of the glazed ceramic beneath the crochet. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Extremely close inspection reveals a small number of loose or broken threads in the crochet, as well as some tiny specks of adhesive residue, all of which are in keeping with the artist's working process.
