Life is Too Short to Drink Bad Wine Small Tall Plaque
Handmade pottery plaque by Michel Malone says: "Life is too short to drink bad wine". Designs are etched into the clay rather than just applied to the surface. This gives the work a dimensional quality that can be appreciated with the hand as well as the eye. All colors are hand glazed and each piece is kiln fired twice to nearly 2000 degrees. The result is a fade proof, weather proof work of art that will last a lifetime indoors or out. Michel's art is featured in collections around the world. Ceramic tile measures 2.75 in x 6.75 in x .25 in. Handmade in Wisconsin, USA.
