Beaded Man, Mouth Open, Vintage Sculpted Clay Head embroidered tray My photo lighting picks up

My photo lighting picks up every tiny imperfection on the silver-plate

14 9/16" x 8" and in good condition

it looks built to run--but also to love

though could also be used as note cards as they feature blank interiors--or as place cards for a very fun and festive dinner party

and carved trim along the edges and peak of the roof

Beaded Man, Mouth Open, Vintage Sculpted Clay Head embroidered tray My photo lighting picks upQuite a lot of character packed into this guy through quite an expressive application and sculpting of lots of bits of clay. He makes me think of Ernest Hemingway in his later years, and feels a bit Zeus like too. With an pocket opening on the reverse, such that one could stuff him with matches or a little secret treasure or two! 4 1 2" t x 3 1 2" w x 3" d and in very good condition, no chips losses at all that I see, and some age to it for sure.
