I purchased a pair of these vintage 1980s Memphis Design-syle ceramic pins at the estate sale of an artist--this one black and white

with a some fairly minor splitting on one side as pictured

Too pretty to resist

Striking Torn Up and Taped Back Together Old Photo of Girl Looking Sideward glass flask with pewter case with wear and paint lossThe stained or perhaps more like shards of shattered glass effect from this photo having been torn up then taped together again I find just stunning. And poignant. And poetic. And making the image feel very much an object and a resilient one at that. And by turns making this young girl feel resilient herself. A whole novel here for sure. 4 7 8" x 3 3 4". As found, tape holding well, just some roughness along the edges.
