Perfect Antique Yellow Painted Clay Billiard Ball modernist print It was made of papier-mache

It was made of papier-mache over a wire structure

Pieces measure about 4 to 4 1/2” long

a tiny bottle like this is equally thrilling to me

but symbolically quite I nice little sculpture now about perpetual questing

Perfect Antique Yellow Painted Clay Billiard Ball modernist print It was made of papier-macheJust so pretty. Quite an old one, made of clay, the perfect pale lemon yellow, and with no number at the center of the white circle to identify it , so it rather transcends its intended function. I don't think I've ever seen a true clay one of this size, and to my eye it's just formally perfect, and nice and heavy and satisfying in the hand. 1 7 8 d and in very good condition, some general light surface cracking as evident, all to the good.
