The work has a wonderful sense of depth and movement—graphic lines, warm terracotta tones, smoky charcoal and muted blue/green highlights—making it a standout piece for collectors of mid-century and modernist ceramics.

Presented in its original frame, the plaque is ready to hang and works effortlessly in both contemporary and vintage-inspired interiors.
